hey that looks awesome! i love it! you've captured her perfectly... i really like the muted colours... very different from my usual over saturation. nice! i noticed you went for the more conservative outfit too.
Yeah, I like conservative outfits more because it gives the character more credibility. I know she's a bit wild looking but this way she looks wild *and* well equiped to rob somebody.
I like muted colours but I wanted to get her looking more bright... I have so many probs using PSP that I decided to use OC and then PSP for the BG and Corel for the text... PSP always makes text a floating selection or something... shits me to no end!! grr!
but at least you liked it! :d
If it *is* *too* plain and uninteresting I want to know why. If *you* don't like critique, change your preference to 'critique discouraged', if I'd seen that I wouldn't have commented at all and we'd both be happy.
You asked me for a critique, here goes. I'm usually not too good at this, but I'll try since you asked.
It's not necessarily uninteresting, but it is a little flat. the major problem area I'm seeing is that there needs to be some shading on her shirt, round her side, to show the shape of her body. The hair could use some more shading too, there should be a bit of shadow from her body onto her hair. also on her leg, if you're going to indicate the shape in her shirt it should carry over onto her pants too ...
Otherwise, I really like the pose, but - this might sound a little odd - the way her arm is raised, her breasts are too even for that. the way the muscles attach, it should lift up a bit when her arm is raised like that. her right breast is also a little bit mispaced in comparison to where her shoulder is. Everything else looks good, especially her hips, you balanced that area really well.
another thing I can reccommend is that you make your shading on her skin a little darker. Don't be shy about that, it won't ruin it, it's just right now you can barely tell there's a shading level there at all.
I hope that helped.
