I think this is the shortest one you have made :) And it feels a little strange, especially with the long paragraph afterwards and the detailed drawing.
I really like the shading on the skin, especially on the back and the right hand. But the thick line surrounding the silhouette seems a little out of place somehow, as if it were a layer of dark electricity, a comic-book aura. The hair also seems nylon-ey or like a dog's after months of not having it cut or washed.
yea was trying new stuff on this one, and ultimately im super happy with the way it came out. one of the better illustrations in my mind, although not my favorite over all. it broke the block spell i had tho! so thats soooooo nice :D on to the next ones!
I think it's one of the best illustrations you've done besides the girl holding her neck. I see nothing wrong with it. She's beautiful.
thanks for that :) definitely spent the most time on it. its less of a sketch and more of a painting just because its a higher level of fidelity. hoping to knock out a few more low fi ones as I'm trying to wrap this painting up I've been working on :)
