downsh1ft comic, poster 2 wip

[gr4f]

hello everyone, it's been awhile since i've been on here, i've been way too busy with work and school...anyway, i recently got the time to go back and work on my downsh1ft comic, and decided that i didn't like the original "cel-shaded" style, so i went back and started over with a more realistic style...i dont usually color like this, but i think im gonna stick with it, it took half the time of the other and yet it looks a lil better to me lol...any comments or crits as to how to push it further? and what i can work on? thanks in advance!

The dark crosshatching pattern in the cleavage area makes it look like she has a hairy chest. I think you should use a tonal shading on that part instead.

I would also like to see the hands finished.

thank you for the crit! i see what you mean about the chest, ill fix that soon! ill be doing the hands soon, i just wanted to lay down some of the colors for the car and do her legs...i have to design a pair of shoes for her, so the shoes/feet will probably be last on the list lol...laters!

layout (yes, that is a 350z targa top... :wink: )
