Hi all!

Normally I concentrate on 3D stuff, but I've been way inspired by the work I've seen here so I had to try doing something in Painter between my other projects :D

This took a pretty good chunk out of one day, critique please!

This is a nice piece! I love the shape that the figure creates.

Crit:
It starts to lose the anatomy towards the bottom of the upper legs and the area where the shoulder and collar bone joins the right (for us) arm is a little weird.

You also might want to concentrate a little harder on the hair too, some areas of it seem more like an after-thought. The hair coming off the top of her head seems a bit high, since her head is slung back, you probably wouldn't see too much of the bangs anyways.

Nice torso though!

Thanks for the crit!

Here's an update with a few fixes. The hair is down a bit on the top (good point it's supposed to be exaggerated but not that much I suppose). I defined the hair and the legs a bit more, and tried to resolve the anatomy of that right shoulder. I think the problem was that the deltoid and pectorals basically obscure the clavical when the arm is raised like that, and I hadn't allowed for that properly... I'm still kind've a noob with realistic anatomy (doing my first serious study with cadavers and medical books etc. this semester).

Very, very nice.
There are few anathomy mistakes, but I like those mistakes. :-) This is how it should be. Grats.

I really love the movement in this one. The thighs and upper leg extremity is really loong and it is throwing the way i look at it off. Maybe make them a little tiny bit shorter. Otherwise I really love it. Maybe if u inmcluded some action in the back it would really pair up nicely with the calm gesture in the front
