Its pretty but needs resolution.

The beta is beautifully rendered and focused, but its almost too small of an area to hold the piece together. Its admirable to attempt a selective focus piece, but i think some of the clouds need a bit more definition in them. The fish shows you have skill, but the clouds make you look amatureish. Even keeping them blurry you can up their physical nature so that it shows that they are more than just white with a photoshop blur and smudge tool.

JakBaronKing responds:

Its a real photo of a Betta fish that I heavily rendered with paint and smudging.

It's small to show just how small of a creature is still appreciated into heaven.

It was my first time painting clouds.

hmmm

looks more just plain futuristic than cyberpunk really. Would be a better fit in just a typical space level.

Kinsei responds:

ok, goosing it up wouldn't be to hard,
I\ll get right on it.

Excellent

Just wish there was a bit more than the plain white background. In this piece it doesn't add anything, only makes it look unfinished. Also just crop it where the legs end, or extend them to the bottom, because again it looks unfinished.

Excellent work on the musculature of the back though.

de-cider responds:

Fixed!

Thanks for the review, Ornery :)

Great Creepy lookin chick there

I like the overall feel of this piece. But one thing is biting at my curiosity. What would happen if i scanned that bar code?

Dasneviano responds:

Hmm.... good idea, I have no clue, I just picked it up from the internet I guess, so it's very likely it contains porn

Well done for a glass study

Kick your contrast up more, gets some pure whites in there and really push the blacks and it will look much more like glass.

Etheria responds:

yeahh I need to overcome my fear of going darker with shading, haha~

Congratulations

Looks like you figured out how to use photoshop filters and the liquify tool....

Saigon responds:

corrections there are no filters just the liquify tool, the filters are leftovers from the other artwork i did before this.
Thanks for the review anyways :)

Nice tone

Top of the head is a bit wonky but its understandable when drawing from a live model, some things just cant get as addressed as others.

You mention the light on the back arm and leg but i dont think you are giving enough credit to the torso side and the tit. There are some really well executed reflected light and shadow work going on there that dwarfs the arms and leg in my opinion. Its also the only area that really looks round, where as the areas you mentioned are a bit sharp and jagged the way the light cuts across it.

TheNooch responds:

I see what you mean about the breast.

I'm not sure I see what your talking about when you say some of the light is jagged, though. I think the shadow cast by her arm on her leg shows the movement of her figure pretty well.

Thanks for the comment. =)

Digging the Flow

I love the way the viewer moves throughout the piece, starting at the bottom which is firmly grounded then drifting away with the bubbles.

Really would have liked to see one of the bubbles overlap with one of the birds and the distortion it would have caused.

LaserKarl responds:

Thank you! Its one of my facourites!

You're right, the overlap of a bird would have added tons to this image. Good point!

Elegant

Like the lighting on this one and the simplistic background that even though not much is going on in it it works perfectly with the piece.

Halvgoeden responds:

Thank you. Though next time I might bring the camera in a little bit closer if I ever decide to re-render this.
