girl with a cross

#1

its a concept sketch.
ah,some kind of black angel, you see her before you die, probably you are falling to the ground…
She is just looking at you with a cold eye, and take your life…

#2

updated version.

this is the first time I try to do a original compose, I found it really a hard working :frowning:

Im trying, but it still a little sucks.
I come here for critiques!

no worries, you’re doing great. I like the refinements on her face that you’ve done. Nice palette too… keep going with it!

#4

thx for your encourage.

I found rendering the skirt a tough job, maybe I should do some study first, I’m not quite good at handling clothes yet.

#5

EXTREMELY beautiful start.
It’s clear that you are really talented. What I can suggest at the moment is to add a little bit of ‘air’ cause the cutted cross in my opinion doesn’t help the composition.
The palette is elegant and perfect for the scene.

great suggestion ,Cyborg. And thx for your concern!
I didn’t notice the “air” problem, maybe I should add some air, especilly in the hair part. The hair seems too “heavy” now.
Before I saw your post, I have done some improves. Here it is:

Hi

Really like the concept. I think her foreground shoulder should come down just a bit - it looks now like she’s tense or hunched up a bit - like the viewer is a bit scary to her, instead of the other way around. I think if you dropped it so the top of the shoulder was lower than her chin she’d look more powerful.

Love the face, by the way. Can’t wait to see it done.

you re right D’Arcy. I will try to lower the shoulder, to see better or not.

The main reason I put the shoulder so high, is I think this sexy~And this also means rejection, cause she is cold-blooded.

#9

After some busy moments, I can sit down and do my paining now.
Some improvements made, almost done,but still rough~

In fact, I got a littile confusion about how to go on, I need your guys’ C&C!
thx for concerning.

Looks pretty good :thumbsup::thumbsup:
You might want to look at the cross a little closer it apears to be bent. Its thicker bellow her breasts then it is above her hair.

#11

Irate Velociraptor, thx for your carefully observation, I should make some fixing

#12

Well, I do not discuss here about technique cause it’s clear that you are a “maestro”, I can only tell you that I honestly prefer the orange-golden light of the early sketch cause it is the complementary o the purple you are using and it enhances the movements and the ‘life’ of the picture.

#13

CyborgJA, I found that you always give the greatest suggestion! I’m really really appreciate it!

My start pallete was orange-purple, later, I changed the hue of the sky is because I want to make the whole pic more identical. Maybe I went a little further, and only to find it more dull. Enhance the complementary color is really a good point.

(oh ,my poor English~)

maybe it takes too long, I’m kinda of lost patience, so I decide to end it.

I have upload it to my CGportfollo.
