Here’s the latest update. The reason why it’s flipped is because that’s one of my working habits. I keep flipping at every stage to make sure none of my right-hand bias seeps in and ruins things.
Here’s a crop of it at actual resolution. I’m trying to keep the brushwork looser this time, since painting too tight is a big problem of mine.
Gamoron- Ya, I totally agree with you. It was one of those “I’ll fix it later things” 
Notice that I already fixed it in this update. 
CgFreak- Mermaid?
Here’s one I did really fast just for the hell of it. I think people are sick of seeing me painting cute chicks anyway.
Race: Blood Demon
Origin: Before the time of men and the immortals, there were Blood Demons that roamed Middle Earth. They are vicious and violent creatures that only kills and feeds, until the land became barren of life. Eventually, the Blodd Demons ran out of food, and crawled into the deepest crevices of the ice mountains to sleep…and wait. They slept for centuries and centuries–until they were woken up by the presence of powerful magic. . …
I like the hybrid idea we said in #cgtalk…but i dig @2 the most…girls are done to death (nothing wrong with girls tho, and the story is sweet)
just myopinion…either way it rocks.
Finished. I decided not to go with the hybrid idea, since adding the creature kind of destroys the ethereal/melancholic feel.
Here are some closeups:
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmh…guts!:twisted:
Great work, but soften he highlight a bit.
Cheerz:beer:
Tom
do u know her address? I dont mind being her food but after i bong her first!
very nice luna.
Thanks for the crits. I’ll do an update with a fix when my strength has recovered(I stayed up till 4:30 am to finish this).
Derelict- Hehehe. You can’t be THAT horny. If you look carefully at the painting, the guy had his guts ripped out BEFORE he could whip out his love stick.
That’s some great work Lunatique!
But MAN, does she EVER have busy eyebrows/eyelids. You might want to thin those out a bit!!!
Otherwise,
Oh no, another one! :surprised
I get people telling me my paintings look like my wife all the time, but the truth is, unless I specifically do a portrait of her, I never use her face as the reference!
Funny thing is, when I first met her, I didn’t even find her attractive(not my type)! 
But of course, now I see her I… :drool: :love:
He’s not the ONLY happily married guy
(Paraphrasing Dennis Miller) Hey single guys? I’ve been having one night stands every night for 10-years!

BTW, Lunatique, I love your colors on this… and sure, women are done to death but if it’s what inspires you, who’s to say that’s a bad thing? I mean, Monet painted the Rouen Cathedral over 30 times, right?
I updated the piece with changes. Just go to page 2 to see it since I saved over the old files.
no offence to your hybrid, its kool
but it has nothing on your blood siren, definitely a winner ;-).
my only crit is the insides of the man, i would assume, but im no artist, that they would be darker, are they only lighter due to the moonlight?
otherwise great work!
