Description

This was done for a good natured challenge between the UK and Seattle. It's 'Britannia' in a sort of Georgian vignette kind of pose. I keep tweaking it, so maybe I'll stop now. :)

Your application on the anatomy is totally awesome! Excellent stance and expression. This is a Britanic doll Only crit might be the high-heels (a little anachronistic perhaps) but it doesn't knock the edge off it. Yum! 9/9

I like the high-heels actually. This whole painting is has a modern feel. I think together with her make-up and hair (which is very modern) it sort of helps to form a bridge between the motive and the present day.

hmm - I couldn't really find anything to crit - and I hate to only add comments like - wow amazing..but well...wow it IS amazing.
the muscular structure is incredibly detailed. I absolutely love the colors and the mood they create. Her expression is very fitting - proud and confident.

8/8 :)

I agree with everything said above, but it looks like a painting...
Nice work though.

Wow! Thankyou everyone for the appreciative comments. This is my first
posting here, after having lurked for so long, and it's lovely to get such
positive feedback. The high heels! Lol! I like high heels! ;)

It was drawn in Photoshop 6, from a rough pencil sketch. The BG is meant to
look painty, as the idea is she is standing in front of a backdrop, as on a stage in keeping with the Georgian vignette idea. I should have extended the shadows to make this more obvious, but the lighting is all over the place anyway! Looks as though I still haven't finished tweaking after all! :)

Again, thanks!

I think I'd call this a digital painting, not a drawing, but either way - it's very well-executed! Nice to see a strong woman too, not just a semi-nude chick posing 'sexy'. Love the color scheme too! :)

You should move it to the Painting section, though of course it wouldn't be no. 1 then. That's not why you posted this under Drawing of course? ;) Because honestly the linework is barely visible in this, and the colouring more airbrushy than most in the Painting section.

Which brings me to the plastic-ness of this...the anatomy is very very good, but everything looks so plastic! The helmet's not bad though. Also imo the lighting on her left foot can be knocked back a little, looks too "forward" as it is now. There are some other little things like the lightest flying hair strands looking unnnatural and wobbly straight edges (pitchfork & pillar), but those are minor. :)

PeachySticks has a good point.. everything looks so shiny.
I expected a bit more rough texture, especially in the column. Nice pic nonetheless, the character looks great. Good anatomy and a strong pose... she seems to actually have some weight. Good job!

This looks quite plastic, but it was your intention to do it so. Overall, the anatomy is perfectly executed (especially those stomach muscles) and the perspective is a must. great job on this one.

Thanks again for the crits. There is stuff that needs doing. The leg does need
'knocking-back', and perhaps I overdid the 'healthy sheen' a little, but all
my straight-line work is hand - 'drawn' without the use of fiendish ;) Photoshop
trickery, hence the slight wobble on occasion. Deadlines are great for dicipline,
but sometimes you wish you had a little longer just to tweak some more!

Thankyou! :)

Your art is AMAZING. The details in her muscles are stunning and she kind of reminds me of Angelina Jolie, especially with those pouty lips. Nice job.
