uhhhhh thess real creepy ones you got there^^
i will promise you to update later today. got some friends around and played some d&d and since im mistress of mayhem on this game, i had to do some work before the actual playtime today too.
i did work on the hands though today but thats really painful and full of disappointments but of nice surprises too 
I’m the mistress of creepy and I have plenty more of these to go around! Like this one:
Just filling in the time until we get another update from you!
omg theresa whats that supposed to be evil kingdom hearts thingie o.O
japanese cosplayers are soooooo nuts
im going to color now and put the things in we spoke off 
i loved this whole new twisted reality thing dont forget to add the second character (especially the flying pose).
keep it coming.
by the way you made me miss D&D stuff, long time passed since my last play:sad: have fun with yours:)
Hello Britta…
I was taking a look inside the 2D catergory, and founf your piece very nice and amusing, I like the idea, and the way you have arranged the elementes to express it. I hope you get this image done on time, but make sure you finish it anyways, I would really like to see how it ends up… great job and good luck.!
looks really ethreal and pretty so far =) very calming, unlike all our masculane action pieces haha. i dont know if you are, but its just something i think would look cool, if you made the hands almost ghost like, like spirits…that rim above the girl should end up looking pretty cool!
nice job so far!
Hi Llynna! How about having the big hands posing palm up from the bottom, supporting the mirror like a pillar and roots entangle themselves between the fingers. Liking the idea so far! Waiting for your costume designing! 
some rather tiny update, but better than nothing eh
spend the day at university with many police officers around for a nice and comfortable learning atmosphere yay
Hey Britta, love where you are going with this…really well composed and balanced elements with such subtle and cool colors. Looking forward to seeing the final image! Good luck
some work on the main character, finally set for a pose and am really satisfied with it.
hey guys n gals, after some real sturggling with myself wether to finish this entry or not i decided to give it a real try and i will definetly finish.
i am sorry for my lack of individual replies to you here and on your threads… i know im bad -.-… just got some work to do for university.
@oceanbluesky: thank you for your support and reply to my image its really appreciated and your comments about the composition are encouraging because this is my weakest point. im always struggling with it, thats why i mostly never finish an image.
@individium: hm, im sorry but i dont think i will put her in… but i can tell you that i made a basic layout for her own painting, the flying character i mean, even worked at it a bit. i really like her too. i am sketching out some suportive little critters and puppets who are carrying the trail of the skirt and some stuff.
im having massive fun with d&d its quite time consuming though because im the mistress of mayhem of the group and they are seriously a bunch of fleas
by the way you made me miss D&D stuff, long time passed since my last play:sad: have fun with yours:)
Hello Britta;
Man do I hate starting so late on a thread of someone popular… it is just so much reading material!
And so many pages!
Firstly I have to say that I loved the visuals that was potential to come out of your concept idea when I first read through it.

thats where we start… at the beginning of the journey to find herself and overcome the fear inside, she is going into the dark secrets of the mirror. a whole new world is opening up for her, scary, dark but still there is beauty to find there. a bunch of weird creatures, the fearful queen mistress of ice and fearful ruler of the mirror world.
the whole atmosphere is to be dark, in a bluish colourscheme. figures are to wear baroque like dresses and the architecture will have its touches of it too but combined with modern elements like tattoos, piercings and some stuff like that. hm well you can say in a bit of a gothic style (now who would have guessed that coming from me :D)
hopefully is was helpful to get a rough idea of my concept. any crit you have would be really helpful and appriciated, please be honest with me, i can live with it
thx in advance fellows
And I agree with the thoughts of many on how great the dress and the ladies pose stands.
Would you mind though; if I be my usual annoying self, and put in a variety of ideas that struck me as I skimmed through your thread?
Firstly I can’t remove the image of the first developed duo-colour sketch of your mirror (This one => Mirror)… and was wondering if it would not be possible for you integrate the flow of the white chalk lines into your final?
Such as in the form of flowing mist or drapery?.. Like in the manner the whites you have there are like a series of fine lace pouring along the curvatures of what ever it is to cover.
Sorry… but it all looked so poetic and fitting to your theme in target… I couldn’t let that one pass by without asking or offering.
The second one is related to your latest update sets…
But maybe it is better to explain it through THIS update.
I LOVE the new addition here… the hand already having her in her grasp… already in control or power to a limited point.
But I also thought that you would have an easier time with the judges, if you would have the hands grab out from inside the mirror. In fact, to (As it is already such in that particular update) blend the whole head of the Queen and have the hands reach for a grab… again all blended in an impossible pose.
I can not state any “poetic” reasons this time for my suggestion, but I have to insist that it will add more a power to the “journey” bit of it… That it will include us in understanding that the passage is in front of her, and that it starts now… without having to read a story.
Because as sad as it is; Marc has made a good point on His Post
All that said, it may be hard for me to convince you that I actually liked what you have done and where you are possibly going to be heading to.
But I have to insist that it apparently struck me strong enough for me to feel a little something extra in each of its steps. And I would not spare this much time nor emotion on something I didn’t feel to be important enough.
So what ever I said or advised… shall you go with any of them or not… I still think that you can’t do anything wrong with what you are already going for… it is a very potential piece of work… and you are doing a great job on it!
Nooow WORK :wip:

wow… just wow Black, im really flattered to recieve this in depth reply. it is really HIGHLY appreciated! thank you very much

definetly! every bit of input is welcome and keeps me working, cause im always struggling with me and my composition and i dont think you got an annoying self. its always welcome to state honest criticism, i really can stand it

indeed this would be possible and it is planned in some points. it will take the form of snow or ice but maybe i will consider the drapery suggestion, that has some great potential. im just lazy working on the background and in sketching in all the elements i ahve in mind. really got to learn how to do that.
But maybe it is better to explain it through THIS update.

so you think the first hands were a better choice? its just that this position is not possible in the real world and somehow the hands themselves looked a bit odd to me.
im now trying to get off of her because im into highly detailing her at the moment and add some critters for her support. hopefully i will be able to show you something in 2 hours or so.
again thank you VERY much 
. your input was very helpful and i will reconsider some things i did and will see if i can make the journey better visible to the viewer.
It’s coming along splendidly! I think her neck seems somehow amputated and moved over to the right a bit too much, if you just moved that one area upwards a bit and over to the left, it’d suit the pose a bit better, just my thoughts anyway, you know how I am. I love the color scheme you picked, very evocative. If I were you, I’d try and use a ref for her face, that angle is difficult to draw.
Weitergehen! :buttrock:
i will try with the neck, its just that i used eg a mirror to get it and maybe i got a screwed neck are ;). im using reference for the head, a photo of me but im looking a bit funny maybe i will have to shoot another one or rather ask a friend to shoot one of me.
hugs
How are things going with you in general? It’s been ages since we’ve talked, but I’ve been sooo busy! Thanks for your comments in my thread, you were very encouraging and comforting. Danke schon
