After smoking in a graveyard all afternoon and listening to this amazing song: http://youtube.com/watch?v=bMOnazBHC40 I need help! The hand, pose..whateva you got for me:) I think she'll be part of a pin up group..

o.o what happened to her hand... it gone poof!!! :o ah well just have it resting on her knee - so she can stay balanced :D
ballerina shoes! :D

This is neat! I like how the red heart is accented by her makeup, and the background is really nifty, too. For some reason, I'm really liking how the hand dissapears, personally. It gives this picture something to think about. The face and hair are to die for, as well.

Very sexy. Pinups are great.
If you want to improve your anatomy (not that it's bad), my suggestion is to try life drawing classes... even if they're hard to find! Otherwise reference photos are good because unless you're amazing it's hard to pull off really good, realistic anatomy from the top of your head. Also the feet here are kind of off; it would be better I think to show the curve of the toe to make it a bit more sexy I think, at the moment the feet look kind of cartoony and the rest of your anatomy seems essentially realistic.

I'm way too excited to see NIN in three weeks.

Hi, I'm new. I enjoy naked women.
I hope this is up to par -nervous-

The legs end rather abruptly, any suggestions on how to fix that problem. It bothers me :c

--edit--
Wee thank you for all the nice comments (and suggestions!).

And yes the bump is a fatty bulge (which sounds gross) or her twin trying to escape (which would be awesome).

this is so cool and stylish, the colours are so great together <3 and the lines are so neat! lurve it

I'm seeing NIN at the end of August <3 As for the legs... hmm... Could always make it look like she's standing in a portal or something like that. Maybe standing in solid black?

Overall I think this is just stunning! and for being 18 I am so thoroughly impressed. The structure is perfect down to the smallest bend in the wrist. But if I were to tell you my favorite part... oddly enough it would have to be the cigarette smoke. the lines are just so exact. and the freckles just add so much character. Maybe she could be taking a steamy bath to cover the rest of her legs.

This is delightful. Weirded by the red spatters tho.

yeah nin's coming in october gonna touch trent's ass YEAH >:DDD

I love all the little details like those freckles. Just rock awesome. And her face is so sassy and gorgeous. The only thing is it seems to me she has a strange bump on her hip?

Well, that's hot. I don't think the leg thing is too much of a problem, they end about where the cig and hand do, so it seems almost kind of appropriate. Love the simple palette and solids, makes it crisp.

um. I'd guess the hip bump is a little fat bulge? Cuz when somebody tilts like that, the side that gets bent inward scrunches up the fat. I dunno. Anyway, nice picture.

I love when people stylize smoke. Something great always comes from it. Those freckles are gorgeous. I love the style of the hair, and the little thatch of pubic hair, for some reason,draws me in. And, of course, those hips. <3

tre chic. The anatomy is super hot. I love her face. I also have to agree that the cig smoke is awesome.

she's quite lovely, although i do wish her legs either continued off the page or were interrupted by something physical. i'm loving her hair/face/breasts. very delicate. also! yay NIN, i will also be seeing them in august. always an amazing show.<3

wow that smoke and her face are intoxicating. and I adore her boobs/arm/shoulders too, ahh it's all so appealing.

yes freckles! you got a lovely shape aboutcha, girlieee i like the subtle pink skintones in the shading

Very nice! Love the colors and her curves!^_^

another NIN fan. i envy you-they never come to my country :(

she is perfect in all ways. i love her face-not too pretty, not too happy, colour scheme,stylization, loose hair....tiny mistakes disappear in goodness overload <3 please moar!

I like the way the legs cut off. Keeps the whole thing in the frame. If they had to be finished I'd just put some solid black thigh high boots, lol. But I am imagining this in a frame and hanging alongside a bar.

Beautiful body shape!

Lurve da boobies! Like the subtle cat-like mouth too

Oooo, a re-tooled Naomi again eh Tets? Nice, very nice! :D

What awkward nipples. Poor gals gunna have back problems. I personally really like the palette used in this. You know, how there's nothing too dark or diverting away from the femininity of this picture.

really nice soild shading :D i can never draw boobs right, I SHALL KEEP MY EYE ON YOU CB

They're large but pert, the rarest kind. Envy your solid shading. Mine sucks these days.

..and don't let go. Don't let go now. EDIT: There, a little better. My coloring sucks these days, but it looks more finished.

The rendering on the man's hair is fantastic(I wonder why you chose such realistic rendering for the nipples and his hair, and flat colors for everything else...), but for a minute I thought the woman had some hellacious chest hair. x.x;

The lines are so clean and neat.

ow. her breasts look nasty and floppy

You say that like it's a bad thing Malpanka. I copped out on the coloring, it was very, very late and I was very, very tired.

O lawd. The texture changes kind of throw me off, but I can't see the anatomy's not decent! Especially on the guy.Nice clean line-art, too.And where there is texture, it's really, really, good texturing.

Can't.... Breathe....

Well..what a way to go man, what a way to go. x_x; *nearly snorted her drink upon seeing this* He likes it, you know he does.

If I put this public somebody can screw around with the coloring/shading. I wouldn't mind. Lately my colorings been off. It's on one layer though.

Crazy Stuff, looks like photoshopped real nipples and hair into the pic! heheh

Just wanted a new icon.

Whaaa? That's crazy detailed!!!
Loove <3

that's pretty sweet.

I wonder if an admin can blow this up and if they could whether it would look ok or kill the magic

Reckon it would kill the magic.

Yup, it would kill it. I mean it took forever to get it to this stage and I never was sure it would look this good. If you saw this larger.... *ug* Thanks all, pixiling is hard.

That is absolutely brilliant. I don't even know how else to put it, man. Pixelling is hard indeed, but you make it look so easy.

Dunno, I used mouse gestures to enlarge it a few times and it still looked quite good.

FFFF D8 this seriously looks like something TAKEN straight from the movie! amazing!

…

I always love your womens and this is no exception.

i love them lips. and that pose is yummy.

this is awesome. :D

/agree with all of the above o_o this is awesome. somethin about the nipples doesnt seem exactly right, but all in all a great pic. especially the face and zomg the hair

Muy bueno :]
She has great hair and *the* cutest face EVAR.
And I think her nips look fine :3 The bend in the arm should be a bit lower though =/

OOh..she's very pretty and so proud looking..

Lovely!

I think this is my favorite of yours yet! I second all everyone said about how proud and beautiful she looks. great pose. great hair. love the nose and mouth and eyes.

i echo everyone else's comments on this. also, i want hair like hers :(

I'm straight and all but if this girl was real....I dunno I may have to question myself. XD She's ADORABLE!! Her face and her haiiiiir make me envious of both you and herself. XD;;

First word that comes out of my mouth is pert. Pert Lips, pert breasts, pert nipples. Just so pert. :)

thanks for the comments!
I have to admit, i was worried about the hair coming out looking too messy, but from the reception i think it looks okay. :]

*rises from the dead* Braiiiiiiiinnnnnssss..... @_O Right, so there's that done. In other news: this chicky is from a dream I had once. She started out a girl and then got hoogly-booglied into a she-male much to her confusion. Later there was a three-some with some nagas... My dreams are delightfully fucked-up :p

So you just sit and watch your sex dreams? That's kind of a ripoff. Anyway welcome back, nice vibrant colors here

I want your dreams! This is lovely. Her thought bubble is great.

lol, nagas...

A revenant from the old guard. How surprising!

XD I'd be all like "Sweet! No more periods!!!"

This is awesome, I love the colours and the shapes and everything. Your style is amazing! ^^

I like the colors a great deal...the shading is nice and also the jewelry...and I agree about the periods...where is that dream come true when you need it...

looking at this i can hear in my head is RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE from altered beast it all its 8 bit glory

Your dreams are... dreamy!

Here is an anthro anteater. I'm going to have a lot of stuff in the art show at Anthrocon (in Pittsburgh) in a few weeks, so I'm still on an anthro binge. It's been a while since I've worked with solids so much, sorry if it's not all that well done. What about the black outline? Should I change the color to match the background more, make it more transparent, or should I add darker outlines throughout the background? Or is it okay, as is?

It looks GREAT. The outline is great because it is more grey than black. The only part of the shading that looks a little off is on the neck. Otherwise, great job. Those dudes have weird feet, I saw one at the zoo two days ago.

Spectacular. I love how the black on her torso/chest kind of looks like a tanktop.

I think the lines are good as they are, honestly. I wouldn't darken the background any (it's actually rather nice as it is), and if you lighten the foreground outlines too much it'll look weird (bold coloring vs light lines .. doesn't always mesh). It's not bad to have dark lines n_n Good luck with your art at Anthrocon :D

the contrast is fiiiine. don't change. Good solids/tonage

The light background looks like a misty forest and I like it. Also, good mix of solids and tones!

Thanks everyone! I'm glad it works okay.

Lovely... the fur colors and pattern make me think of Pokemon though ;)

Very nice, I love the cross hatching, and as well, I agree that the lighter background adds to this. Her feet are adorable. Definatly looking forward to more of your stuff at AC.

I don't know what's going on, honest!



I've developed a fear of just drawing "whatever" in the past few years, Imma try and do something about that. So here's whatever.




Oh I just figured out what's happening, it's trying to lick her ear. Yes.

i really dig the coloring and the motion in this one. she's got a biteable bum. >3

blackmyst? I haven't seen you draw in ages, so nice to see your work again

okay, that's cool. You're good at this

colorscheme = win. purple with yellowy highlights gets me every time! this is great.

Oh god yes.

This is really awesome! The only thing I can't figure out is what's going on with her mouth.

i love your color choices.

i like her mouth too, i make that face a lot haaa

I love the coloring and how she looks golden..I think her mouth is soo cute...

Haha, this is hilarious. And yeah, purple + yellow is always nice.

Thx for zee comments. Yeah, she's uhh... a member of the octorok descendants tribe, hence the mouth.

@Bubble: your devart name sounds familiar. You were on oekakicentral, right?

Blackmyst, yeah I was, still am, just don't draw a lot :3 I remember you drew awesome stuff in the MainHall

You are sublime

I am sort of new here..and this is my first picture...

this is pretty freaky, but I can see plenty of effort in the coloring.

Jesus this is scary.

Awesome though.

wow okay this is terrifying
but also real nice haha

Thanks so much...

Thanks for uploading Gendaru! I'm glad I screencapped it. I used a reference picture of Penelope Cruz... was planning on doing something cool with it, but ended up just pretty much copying it. Oh well, it was good practice. (PS - That'd be my re-touch time!)

it's hard to not commit when you have a reference. But it's great practice. The color scheme is interesting being mostly muted colors, it has a desert type feeling to it.

good eye-to-hand coorination

So stunning..I always though at one time i wanted to do realism..then i realized it just was not for me...but i applaud people who do it well...Kudos to you.

Bored at work.

I always love seeing tones being used in oekakis. 's pretty n_n

oh wow, good job with the sparklies. It's really interesting when people pull simple effects like this off

When I first saw this it didn't have sparkles. Either way, it looks awesome. Very illustrative; it definitely tells a story. And those sparkles make it look like those paintings that light up (which are kinda cheesy in real life but I like the effect here).

I love magical mountains! :0 great colors. Are we looking out of a cave whose overhang has lots of sparkly vines? or is it like cosmic seaweed invading earth? either way, it's spiffy-looking. I think the sparklies could have been used more sparingly on the clouds at the bottom as not to overwhelm and... cheapen the drawing. I don't mean it harshly but words, I'm no good with them.

wow this is nice...i love blue and wow//good job!
