Painting: Lust.

[CrudelyDrawn]

Still not done shaping the face. Not done from the chest downward. Still working on shadows and highlights. I like where this is going. It's part of my concentration on sins. This one is Lust (of course).

Any comments, suggestions? My mom says the dress is too low. I think that's just a typical mom comment. I've actually already painted the dress higher. Mom still stands by her claim. What do you think?

To me, it feels like her ribcage and shoulders are way too small for that head.

I do really like the face work so far, and a nice blend of colors. The proportions are just a bit off.

Her neck is super long. That's the thing that's most obviously strange in this to me.

The neckline on the dress is fine, in my opinion. Haha...good ol' mom! Reminds me of a painting I brought home in undergrad, of a nude male model and my mom said "Do you HAVE to paint "that" in?? (the penis of course) Uh...yeah mom, I do.

I think the left shoulder looks a little too low and is looking strange - the motion is believable, but the place it's hinging feels too low. I think the head is looking pretty good and I like the pose. Her hair would probably benefit from some rendering so it doesn't look like one big flat shape, but I'm sure you knew that.

It's gettin' there! :)

I'm not quite sure who's supposed to be lusty - the girl, or the viewer looking at the girl.

If the former, she needs far less 'look at me' in her pose, and far more animal desire in her gaze (which should probably be more obviously at the viewer).

If the latter, she needs to be a whole lot more appealing - someone, it appears, has broken her left shoulder, there's not a great deal of depth to her, her skin tone has that 'recently sunburned' look, and her face disconcertingly reminds me of a chipmunk.

I think u dont have to use flash when u photo ur pics. Its better if u make in shadow of some tree.
Maybe hair could be little iluminated. Like this is too close with dress.
