Hey Marco,

Goshh beautiful girl!! :smiley: like a lot the new color for the football suit, works really great with the girl. The background colors look really nice too. Great work my friend and waiting for more updates. Cheers!! :thumbsup:

adding final details

#29

This is looking gorgeous, Marco! sHe is totally hot, and the whole thing is a lot of fun. You’re pretty much done except for the “bla blas” at the bottom… But seeing as you have a lot of time left, relatively speaking, I’ll just toss out some nitpicky details to think about :smiley:

The upper tagline and the logo at the bottom might pop more with a bit of a black hard-edged drop-shadow.

I’m not a huge fan of the pinkish purple in the sky by the horizon. I feel like it distracts from the color of her shirt without adding anything. Maybe if it were a deeper blue instead of pink… but that’s just personal preference.

While she’s looking terrific and sexy, her skin overall is a bit on the matte side. Some stronger specular hilgihts on her could really take her the rest of the way to being alive. Ditto some strong anisotropic hilights on here hair, which is looking especially flat.

And the little bouncy line from the ball coming off of her foot feels unfinished, too roughed in and sketchy for the rest of the piece… Maybe you just haven’t got to it yet. Don’t forget it! :slight_smile:

Anyhow, hope you don’t mind the small details, my friend… shows how far you’ve come if that’s all I can think to crit! But otherwise, pretty much done. Congrats! :thumbsup:

Just changesd few things (girl’s body was quite strange, with wrong proportions).

#31

I’m still not sure about the background supporters, but I think I’ll delete them.

#32

adding some paper effects…

#33

some closeups of the actors

#34

Hey Marco,

Great work, love all the characters really great cartoon style on the image, cool.

Only two things concern me a bit :smiley: The eyes oft the man-ball-face on the top left maybe can be looking directly to the face of the girl, for now the feel is he are looking for some in her hand and create a distraction. The other is again the eyes, but for the face of the man on the kicked ball , perhaps the eyes looking to the girl too, for no draging the attention out of the canvas. … silly comment dont listen to me :smiley:

I prefer the image without the paper effect.

Awesome work, and great details and painting on it. Cheers!! :thumbsup:

#35

yes, I prefered the more saturated version too… but I like your new title, I think it looks much better!
all the characters are looking great! my favourite one is the one with the glasses, hehe…
:applause:

Finished! Unfortunately I wasn’t unable to follow all the advices because time limits, but I hope you enjoy my final image the same!
Thanks for all your useful advices fellows!

Software: Photoshop

The main idea was to make something similar to the poster art of the Italian sexy comedies of the '70-'80 decades.

The “Italian sexy comedies” are simple but quite funny movies with comedians and sexy women acting using a script full of misunderstandings and ambiguous situations.

A typical topic of this genre is the betrayal, usually presenting middle-age and quite ugly men trying to court young women.

Often, the leading characters are teachers and students in a high-school scenery, or sodliers and sexy nurses, but this may vary.

A minor topic of these comedies was sport; of course, the main sport considered was soccer and all the professional figures of its world involved in soft-erotic, funny situations.

The story of the movie “La fuoriclasse” (“She-outsider”, my entry in this challenge), could be the following:

Gino Quadrupedi is the coach of the unlucky minor-league, Italian soccer team named “Atletico Montagnano”.

One day, he discovers a very talented soccer player, playing for fun in a city park. This player is fast, smart and great in dribbling; the only problem is that the player is a very sexy girl, named Giulietta.
Mr. Quadrupedi suceeds in hiring Giulietta, taking her in his team.
From that point, all the males of the “Atletico Montagnano” team (coach included), will try to seduce Giulietta, in any place and in any situations.

Many of them, try to spy Giulietta in the showers or in the changing room or while she trains herself in the training field.

Giulietta doesn’t seem to notice all these “attentions” from her fellow colleagues (she’s quite ingenuous); she just thinks she’s surrounded by kind and amusing people (the president of the team, the coach, the referee, the sponsor and so on, few of them are portraied in the poster).

At the end, the president of the team try to kiss her in the middle of the game field during the final match of the year, but Giulietta’s husband,

tired of all these special attentions about his wife, will beat the president and all the team…

Very lovely work, i wish that she kick to me :slight_smile:

Beautiful work, Marco! I really like the desaturated version, and the paper texture works by being super-subtle. Thanks for the story description and the translation of the title, too. And especially nice work on Giulietta, possibly the sexiest women in this challenge! :wink: Congrats and good luck! :thumbsup:

Great poster, she is soooo sexy. I really can feel the movie behind it and it fits perfectly to your goal of the retro italian comedies. Good luck!

Thanks everyone for your comments, friends!

imperioli: Cool fantasy! I have to agree with you: we love sexy and dangerous girls with special shoes!

walrus: Thanks for your words about Giulietta! You’re too good my friend…I hope my very bad english was clear enough to understand the great screenplay behind this amazing movie (I’m jocking, of course…)!

JurajMolcak: Thanks my friend! If you have the chance, take a look at some of our “Italian sexy comedies”…they’re quite funny!

Ferx: Hey Fernando! You’re too good too! Thanks for your words! About the gestures: as many of our fellows often say, a good plan of the image is absolutely important and I’m studying to improve the research side of the works.

Thanks again for all your comments! Good luck to everyone!
