Artist's Comments

:icondadaismo:'s character... She requested her months back, and since I had a bit of free time, I thought I'd get around to it ^^
This is her profile page: [link]

I'm not sure her clothes fit her, but I couldn't draw her in a robe and keep the drawing looking interesting unfortunately...

her charms were reffed too, from pics of jewelry then resized down...
textures from mayang... I THINK...

This is lovely. :D Her hair looks so soft, and the realism of her face is awesome.

thank you so much :) I'm really trying to learn more about realism :) I'm not sure if my style will end up with it, but it's helpful stuff ^^

Definitely not Disney, much more mature-looking face (because that was the basic problem, if you look at Sade's pic) but still I think you could have worked on the skin more, seems too bland. I'm nit-picking though, it's a nice improvement. Moving very well towards a mature and more realistic style.

personally, the shading bugs me on this one :) I haven't exactly figured out the "WHY" it bugs me though... I guess it's that it's a tad simplistic. I could have worked more on the face, but the res I was working on was too tiny for better texturing or fine detailing :P working big makes it much easier :P

i love you i love you i love you!

I was out of town all weekend so sorry for not fangirling sooner!

Oh i am very honored you drew her! She\'s perfect. The clothes are fine, the detail on the bracelet is perfect, her gaze is perfect, and she\'s at a table so it\'s like she\'s at the coffee shoppe! ^_^

Thank you!
