[julie cheung]

Wonderful piece!

The colors are working nicely. Her waist seems a little small. The hair stands out too much; maybe it's the color or the detail.

[endregan]

Hey Endregan, thanx so much for understanding it :chug:
I know it's a tricky viewpoint but I find it interesting because it brings (well, to my humble point of view and this is what I tried to do) a feeling of a very small area around. This is also why I chose that kind of high key light source.

[Jianna]

she's beautiful!

I love how her red red hair stands out against the green of the rest of the painting. And of course those hands are gorgeous as well. Wonderful :D

[I.was.ink]

Wow....!

She looks soo beautiful. So soft, and great eye for the details man. I love the attention you gave to the arms. The color harmony is great as well, all that green really stand out from the red. Nice colors!

My only crit/suggestion is that I wish her hips/stomach region was a little more defined. At the same time, because it is a tad more loose than the face, it brings our eye to the face. So in those respects, great job! :)

Looking forward to you next piece.

P.S How long did this take?

[Jaku]

wow!

you got deep inside me with this one. I love it.

[cotron]

beuatiful, love the green/red contrast

[Matt Dixon]

Just beautiful. I'm becoming a definate fan our your work, M. Rossbach!

[Boom]

Very, very nice

Love the subtle color variation, texture work and the lightning.

Maybe you could bring some of the subtleness to the hair too 'cause I think it (the hair) right now is inbetween stylish and realistic. Take the hair abit in either direction and the painting will come better together, I think...

I'd say something like 6 hours, with photo ref' of course. I have to admit that this painting is what I'd call a "happy incident" (there's a word for that in english for sure but I don't know it). I mean I didn't expect the result you can see when I begun the painting, especially concerning the color scheme. In fact I'm feeling really tired of using this green/red gimmick I always fall into. But this time I'm happy because I think I found a way to achieve some subtlety.

gasp ! talking way too much again... thx everyone for the kind replies.

[Feerik]

great.. love how the aqua green fills the whole picture.. was the light really like that (or is this even from life, i should ask)?

[foster]

ah! such beauty. you are making my experimenting seem like wading in the the kiddy end of the pool. your feet stopped touching the bottom a long time ago and you have been swimming laps around me.

one thing, i am a little distracted by the sharpness of her face as compared to the edges on her body. maybe more subtle of a transition. i do think that you can have contrasting edges but in this case it separates her head from her body.
