Artist's Comments
This is the first all-digital painting I've done completely from reference, rather just using a basic reference and then interpreting from there. I've been trying to work more in grayscale to get a better instinct for lighting. I love colour, but this medium is a better training ground.
Anyway. I'm proud of it. I feel like I have a lot to learn, but I think I'm getting better all the time, which a good feeling. I'm slowly but surely incorporating everything I've learned from other people and all of their amazing work. Cheers. Criticism (especially specific) is greatly appreciated. Comments It´s a great job!!!! without colour? It doesn´t matter...
I like it anyway, keep working!!!!! Cheers!

-- Screwy, but smart.  You've really captured the soul of Jareth... that beautiful darkness quality that makes him so fascinating. I really like this.
-- "if you seek the light... throw yourself in that fire we must burn to shine" -Trevor Munson Icon by:[link]  This is wonderful. Thank you for shareing.
-- ..:::A government big enough to give you everything you want, is a government big enough to take everything you have:::... MASTERING OTHERS IS STRENGTH. MASTERING YOURSELF MAKES YOU FEARLESS. -LAO TZU  Wonderful job - the shading is dramatic and eyecatching, and the background adds depth without detracting from the image by being over detailed. I really like it!
The face is beautifully realised, although I'd argue about the fringe-length hair - its a bit static and harsh looking. -- "It was you who set all the boundaries of the earth; you made both summer and winter." Psalm 74:17 Thanks for the comment! It was very helpful- probably the most helpful so far.
I was working from a cap, so I wanted to get the background looking sort of out of focus without using a filter. A filter is way too obvious, since I wanted it to have a painted effect, I went with crazy loose details and blurred it a tiny bit. I see what you mean- the hair is definitely static. If I clean this up in the near future, I'll add more movement. Hair is definitely not one of my strong suits yet. -- sweeney todd online Face it, Harl, this stinks. You're a certified nutso wanted in two dozen states, and hopelessly in love with a psychopathic clown. You're welcome! Glad to help ^_^
And seeing as you've admitted to having trouble with hair - aren't the people who can get it perfect and make it look effortless just plain disgusting?  -- "It was you who set all the boundaries of the earth; you made both summer and winter." Psalm 74:17 oh, of course.

 reports, 1d 19h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.79 The Online Photography Dictionary^kkart
 reports, 1d 13h agoHave you ever wondered what something meant as far as Photography goes? Things like "Cable Release", "AEB", "C-41", "Neutral density filter", and "Polarizer"? The photonotes.org Dictionary of Film and Digital Photography is one place to stop and get it all answered. This is quite a valuable resource that explains in depth what a photography term means, and will help those understand who might not know what something is. |
