Description

Fantasy

Name of the painting comes from the orchid flower "Cattleya labiata" but this one is special. It has a hallucinating effect on her :). So some events happen to be in her mind, like the fire and haze. She has just killed someone to get that flower. The meaning of that circle of fire is that i wanted to emphasize her state of mind... what a load of crap.

I used ps7, wacom I3, no refs and took about *sigh* week

original version is 3000x7000 so go easy on me

I like to write:

go figure

It's nice :) I really like the colors. There are some things to be improved though: the background is too changing.. What i mean is that you have gren on the bottom, some pink on the top and in general it's a bit too chaotic. Still nice though :)
The character design is kinda nice (anatomy is a bit stiff but no biggy) but I'm a bit disturbed by those highheels. I mean wouldn't they be uncomfortable to walk and fight in? hehe that's nitpicking though :) I love that sign on the ground :)

Overal - good work :) +6

BlacKeri - I chose perhaps a bit too saturated purple/pink haze or too dark middle section, but my intention was to make an illusion. That the top of the background is a reflection of what's going on in her mind.
Then the figure. I was perplexed about whether she would be a warrior type or a princess type or what? Therefore I forgot to remove those heels when I decided to make her a killer.

Teka - God, I moulded here face like a thousand times :) I tried to make her expression look like a bit fainted.

But I guess you guys are right. (thumbup) thanks, I appreciate

I like this! She looks powerful, not manly (in my opinion anyway).
Great colors. Not too sure about that sign, or it's "fire". It registers like brushstrokes and not like flames/sparks.

ok a few things
blood splattered on her?
heels in the out doors?

How does she get those shoes on?? I like the different effects going on, but I have to agree with kittykat in asking why is there a glass reflection on the dirt.

kittyKat -
blood: "She has just killed someone to get that flower." perhaps the dead guy
cought
heels: mistake
reflection: It's not dirt.

Wysiwyg - by using her razorsharp wit I dunno, I guess that goes to the mistake section too

I'm sorry when I say that I can't explain any better but there's a sort of symbolism in this image. I find my description lack some information, maybe it's my knowledge of english. :( thx for comments :)

Good colouring and shading. Great detail. Maybe you should work a bit more on anatomy, but anyway the picture looks great

kittyKat - yep :) at least when it's taking too long to finish the painting :) (I was having a hard time understanding your last comment :) i guess it wasn't sarcasm)

Again I didn't know what was coming when I started this, next time I paint from reference and use WIP forum or something :) "Those who do not want to imitate anything, produce nothing" -Salvador Dali

Hey, I'm only here for improving 2 things, english :r and my (paint) art
