By the way, the timer is off, I spent a lot more time on this, at least 3 hours, and please view the full picture, the thumbnail is scarier than the actual thing hehe. 13337 brush strokes~!

weisen1 @ 2010-08-19 10:33:35

Gorgeous job, you've captured her likeness very much.

Luh_Cah_123 @ 2010-08-19 21:13:03

wow she's beauty :o good work!

Shi Painter

noncomposmentis @ 2010-07-04 21:40:40

C&C please : )

tish @ 2010-07-05 08:26:11

It looks really real from the thumbnail.
Even familiar. I dunno ;)

19robyn91 @ 2010-07-29 14:32:28

I think it's meant to be Zooey Deschanel? :)

JakSparrow @ 2010-08-10 13:10:54

I see Katy Perry

Shi Painter

noncomposmentis @ 2010-06-12 17:29:28

This took waaay longer than it should have, but oh well.

tish @ 2010-06-13 05:14:29

your pictures are so different one from another.
And so good. o_O

noncomposmentis @ 2010-06-13 17:25:54

@Tish
My pictures tend to change depending on what mood I'm in. I'm still trying to find "my style" as well. :)

I just realized that she looks like an octopus. >_<

TisForTwee @ 2010-06-15 01:10:21

Another artistic piece, well done. The shading on the skin is delicious, especially with the subtle touches of purple. Nice.

fOoLsama @ 2010-06-15 13:21:48

I like this piece. The watercolor look and feel is well done, especially the detail around the face. I'd like to see you solidify that up over time, perhaps work a little shading in to these.

noncomposmentis @ 2010-06-15 17:29:29

@fOolsama
I don't quite understand what you mean...?

Luh_Cah_123 @ 2010-07-02 13:16:50

lovely pic! ^^

Kabiv @ 2010-08-13 19:46:08

I'm loving this picture! She's so pretty. I love how her lips are so rosy and stands out from the cold background! :D

TisForTwee @ 2010-06-01 13:09:05

This is very unique and pleasing to the eye. I really, really, really like all the colors.

saturn @ 2010-06-02 15:26:03

noncomposmentis @ 2010-06-02 19:43:25

Hehe, thanks~

StrawberryCupcake @ 2010-06-03 17:05:02

amazing colors :3

ephemeralstyle @ 2010-06-05 22:31:12

This pulled me in off the front page. Ab. so. lute. ly. stunning.

Gwydion @ 2010-06-11 11:44:37

I just love the way you used color in this! Saw it from the main page and had to check it out. Very nicely done!

Whisper @ 2010-07-06 00:39:55

This is gorgeous. The use of color is breathtaking, and the ravens look unexpectedly realistic. I love her wispy hair, and the simple yet elegant background. Great job.

Kabiv @ 2010-08-13 19:45:06

This is beautiful! I'm loving the colors and the birds :D

tish @ 2010-04-14 01:22:40

the BG looks definetely not worthy the girl.

Courtney @ 2010-06-07 15:03:14

You did a good job with the line art and the basic anatomy of the girl. This is pretty decent for your first try in a two star room. Keep practicing.

Shi Painter

old-lum @ 2010-03-27 14:40:52

TurtleQueen @ 2010-03-28 01:24:53

she looks so lovely! her body looks so nice and long. I also love the colors, they are very soothing and work so nicely together. great job!

old-lum @ 2010-03-28 11:47:58

thanks a lot! ^^

artistamaltija @ 2010-03-31 06:54:52

Wow her skin tone is awesome!

LaurieSuncat @ 2010-04-07 09:12:56

Very nice job.

PaeMaio @ 2010-04-24 19:51:10

I LOVE the picture!

...but you've heard that already, so I'll be nitpicky: the breasts seem shifted a little to our right.

weisen1 @ 2010-05-08 00:11:58

The colours are very clean and well handled - it almost looks like a magazine spread.
As mentioned above the breast look a bit off cause they don't looked lined up with one another.
Otherwise, this is a gorgeous picture and I love what you've done with the shoulder on the right and her legs : )

weisen1 @ 2010-05-08 00:12:26

old-lum @ 2010-05-14 12:13:13

oh, yes, this is an equitable remarks)))
thanks!

Plarix @ 2010-05-31 00:06:47

Very nice coloring, but you should smooth the lines so that it looks more realistic. I love the hair. I'm not so good at it but yours is really excellent. Connect the neck with the body more and maybe make the neck thicker. Did you make this from a reference? Also, give her more lines on the inside of her elbow.

PaintBBS

Zer0 @ 2010-01-22 21:56:20

It keeps it in.

Ah, Gretchen, you are such a pretty and ugly thing.

Seamstress_guy @ 2010-02-08 00:25:20

there is definite BAMF-ness in this chick! my compliments! :D Awesome cell shading!

PaintBBS

BeckiebooTwo @ 2009-11-26 22:37:18

Oh...how long has it been since I've drawn here...? Very long...psshhhhh.

This is an OC...her name is Sable. She says hi.

Forgive, forgive...

NekoBrimm @ 2009-11-28 07:49:57

Very cute! Love her head tilt to the side. She seems friendly and playful. <3

LaurieSuncat @ 2009-11-28 12:17:21

Looks great now! Glad we were able to recover it.

turtlequeen @ 2009-11-28 14:55:53

oh, very lovely! the coloring and shading look very realistic! great attention to detail, and her eyes are very pretty and clear. The softness you achieved on the lips is amazing too! wonderful job~

Mana @ 2009-11-29 22:18:33

fabulous seeing you here! I love how smooth you can get your coloring <3
The area of her nose and mouth is my favorite part of this image!
Great work : >

Tobi @ 2009-12-03 07:12:52

It's been a long time... Nice to see your oekaki again!
She's gorgeous, especially, the eyes.

Person @ 2009-12-13 08:35:03

Welcome back! I remember you. <3

TisForTwee @ 2010-06-01 13:10:52

You have such a beautiful style. I really love her eyes, and her soft expression.

PaintBBS

NekoBrimm @ 2009-11-25 16:32:24

Well, it's not the background I was hoping to use for this but, somehow, it works better overall than what I was trying for originally. :) I really do hope it's up to par. Finding a background and colors that work with this girl is not easy.

And thanks muchly for granting me the extension, Uriel. X3 (And then I managed to finish it early, go figure).

(Edited on November 27, 2009, 3:45 pm)

Tobi @ 2009-12-03 07:11:07

I think the background is very nice.
And her outfit is so cool. ^^;

AngelicKitty89 @ 2009-11-23 23:13:48

The hair looks beautiful, really nice work. :)

NekoBrimm @ 2009-11-27 10:30:34

Those eyes are just wow~. Loving the lace too. I think the lineart is absolutely gorgeous but the coloring seems way too rushed. If you can take some time to clean this up and put in some shadows on the skin and hair it'll look less 2-d (flat) and more 3-d. :)

Shi Painter

Seamstress_guy @ 2009-10-25 20:43:37

Not finished yet. Coming back tonight to draw the rest and put in the background.

Seamstress_guy @ 2009-10-25 23:24:21

I finished! :D I really feel that I'm getting excited for halloween.

Saeria @ 2009-11-02 12:46:36

I really really like this :D the composition is lovely and the thing that strongly resembles a depressed sweet potato is seriously adorable.

aterriblebeautyisborn @ 2010-01-21 23:46:04

this is gorgeous- the colours, the composition, the little root vegetable thing <3

you have a beautiful drawing style and it makes me very, very happy that this work is to celebrate halloween ( yay) instead of christmas ( booo!) xD.

PaintBBS

NekoBrimm @ 2009-09-30 14:06:59

...And now, finished!

I'm unsure how well all the colors go with one another but overall I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. :)

(Edited on October 1, 2009, 3:44 pm)

tish @ 2009-10-02 06:38:00

I predict you'll lure many other vistors from the frontpage.
It's... just... pretty! ;))

Lady_Nephthy @ 2009-10-06 02:46:18

very nice, you can tell a lot of time and effort has been put into this piece :3

beatoriche @ 2009-10-10 13:58:37

so amazing.

Shi Painter

AoshiValentine @ 2009-08-11 19:21:47

a study from an artist I like

Alulae @ 2009-08-16 01:42:16

Beautiful lady. No comments? This is unacceptable! >:O wish more of the other side of her face was visible, though...the shadows almost seem too dark.

grilledbananas @ 2009-11-02 22:26:18

super cool colors and nice full lips

velvet blue @ 2009-11-23 04:48:50

I love the use of plum colors to flesh out her face. Very pretty and relaxed. The pic reminds me of Falk, an artist who used to be on this board.

Zer0 @ 2010-01-23 08:42:56

Ooh, I love the colours of this, and the detail you've managed to add with a real economy of stroke.

PaintBBS

weisen1 @ 2009-07-20 01:47:47

First oekaki in a while - feeling a little rusty here.

Wanted to mess with intense lighting and draw some girl-loving on these boards since we don't seem to get enough ; )

C&C welcome.

(Edited on July 20, 2009, 2:20 am)

turtlequeen @ 2009-07-20 03:03:49

holy SNAPSICLES WEISEN!! that shading is...AMAZING!!! geez. I saw it and totally thought, "that's weisen." lolll you always have crazy amazing lighting that I adore. omg this is so tripppyyyy. the way the bodies ...meld together. and you totally got that whole ghetto city thing down with the brick wall, graffiti...and DANG! you are so NOT rusty D: the detail and patience you demonstrate in your work always blows me away. this is really great. you need to draw more weii.

DeathDealerNadine @ 2009-07-20 15:17:24

WOW :O
This looks so damn good! Amazing!
(I just had to look twise, to see that it's two girls and one is bald XD)...

Angellis @ 2009-07-21 00:01:55

At first it takes a moment to realize where one girl ends and the other begins...but after study it all makes sense and it's good...oh so good.

tiamat4eva @ 2009-07-21 01:11:12

i don't normally appreciate girl love, but somehow the way everything is intertwined is really passionate and exciting. it's mysterious to see connecting shapes and extreme light sources clash, and the shapes are overall really interesting. this is really cool.

weisen1 @ 2009-07-21 14:52:37

Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments : )

Lauraz @ 2009-07-23 20:48:56

Gooooooood heavens!! That is EPIC. That shading is blowing. my. mind. One can only sit gasping at the screen, twitching and muttering the single, overriding question: HOW?

Wonderful oekaki.

velvet blue @ 2009-11-23 04:44:41

This is possibly the smoothest shading I have seen on this board. The play light vs. dark, the graffiti, the texture :D, and the anatomy is just fantastic. Honestly, tho, the chick's dark hair threw me off, left me asking "are they two people or one person just an extra set of arms and legs?" It took a minute (currently I don't have corrective lenses on) to figure it out, but I do dig the concept melding of two bodies into an one passionate form.

Zer0 @ 2010-01-23 08:41:45

Just adding my two bob to everyone else's, here: This. Is. Amazing. Absolutely stunning, and the extreme lighting is beautifully handled.

PaintBBS

Shoyru @ 2009-07-15 07:13:51

obviously not finished.

She's got a bunch of extensions on her, and the color atmosphere is making things difficult for me. Still practicing these things.

Shoyru @ 2009-07-17 16:38:35

Is finished now. Somehow, when I try to edit my own comment on the picture the changes never show up.

Alulae @ 2009-07-18 01:08:22

I like the colouring - and all the little details, like the patch of in-focus grass by her feet. Pretty picture. :)

Heatherpink @ 2009-07-30 16:53:02

Awww thats really good! mustve tooken you ages! but i like the coloring and how its dark and all shaded! Good job!

TisForTwee @ 2009-10-03 20:22:09

I love the dull green colors with the bright sea green lighting, and where the light source comes from is really interesting. Her dress is very pretty as well. Great job!

Shi Painter

Ashe-S @ 2009-07-06 14:10:50

voila! it is done. i wish i had a tablet. :P

Alicia @ 2009-07-08 14:52:11

Beautiful! I wonder how your works will look when you get yourself a tablet. Very inspiring!

Heatherpink @ 2009-07-30 16:52:04

Woah i really like the coloring!

PaintBBS

DairyProduct @ 2009-06-25 16:48:48

Aaah, sorry if this isn't up to par D: Especially that awful background.

Character for a story I might get around to writing. She's an android and kind of butterfaced in the sense that she has a total creeper robot face, but butterbodied in the sense that she doesn't have a bellybutton, nips or lady parts.

Halftones are fun! And I've always liked bright colors!

EDIT- Okaaay, took the black off her hand and now everyone can see that I can't draw them. And I think I fixed the wrong thigh..she looks a tad too skinny now. Oh well!

(Edited on June 26, 2009, 2:31 am)

demonred21 @ 2009-06-25 19:22:41

I think you should fix her left hand and one of the thighs. They look really off

Please do so within 24 hours or this picture will be deleted

EDIT- Thanks for fixing it ^^

(Edited on June 26, 2009, 10:52 pm)

Angellis @ 2009-06-25 22:59:31

Yes..other than the two things mentioned above this is absolutely adorable...I see what you are trying to do here, the over exaggerated hip tilt and the understated left (her left) hand...personally I don't mind them but I'm not a mod. Please do fix this because I definitely adore this. It's so summery!

weisen1 @ 2009-06-30 01:35:43

Honey, that is anything but butterfaced ; )
A much happier picture than I have seen around in a while.

moonseed @ 2009-07-01 00:34:15

heh I like this pic. It's one with more character in it than much of the pics I see.
Although I would move the whole pic a bit left, having the hand parallel to and touching the border of the picture is a little odd.

tofu-pimp @ 2009-07-02 23:28:51

I adore the usage of tones and how whimsical the picture is. <3 I love it!

ChaoticBean @ 2009-07-13 05:52:55

ahahaha i love this, her pink face makes her look she looks drunk

NekoBrimm @ 2009-05-12 11:40:22

Borqje @ 2009-05-13 16:39:20

The layering of the feathers has been neatly drawn, that must have required some devotion...The halftone filling works wonderful here as the fine texture of feather barbs!

Tobi @ 2009-05-15 06:30:17

Mysterious and beautiful!

This looks pretty neat. I like the colors and the vibrancy. Her face is really well drawn, as is the hand. Good work!
