A Wanderess.

[Angrim]

Here's my another try. I spent a couple of nights doing this. I think I am getting a somekind of hang of digital painting/drawing... It's not a masterpiece, but I'm developing, I think.

I used, again, Wacom Intuos3 and Photoshop 7.

 

[SuAside]

wow, i guess living through the apocalypse doesn't make you pretty

nice try though, but needs some work, on the head mostly.

 

[Angrim]

Yeah... I think that the girls living in the Wasteland aren't that pretty.

I'm kinda happy with her face. It's hard work wandering in the Wastes, you know.

 

[SuAside]

the face itself is acceptable to me, but the shape/proportion of the top of the head seems wrong.

It's certainly better than your first try. Which is good. Means you learn from your mistakes.

Here are a couple of things that need work:
- the woman's head: not the fact that she's ugly, that doesn't bother me, but the shape of her head, think away those goggles, that leaves her with a forehead the size of Mount Everest
- the oildrum with goo: doesn't look like a metal cylinder, it's too thick
- the pile of rubbage, although the colours are good, it just looks too organic, like a blob, some grey organism
- the light/shadow on the woman's jumpsuit: don't use that much white/grey to achieve your result. Use different shades of blue to get the shadows right and only use a little white, if necessary, to show the lightest areas (it works well on curves - shoulder, titty, elbow, knee- not on surfaces)
- her left arm looks a little contorted

But it's a good second try, Angrim. You'll get there eventually.

In addition to what alec said;



SHADOWS

LIGHTING

PROPORTIONS



Ragged lines, again. Also, don't overuse the "smudge" function.

 

[Angrim]

Thanks for the constructive criticism, guys!

I think I'm getting there slowly.

- the oildrum with goo: doesn't look like a metal cylinder, it's too thick

in his defense, it might be so thick to absorb all radiation during transport.

 

[VirtualAlex]

Impressive.

Umm... Yeah!

It's so thick to absorb all radiation during transport!

I like the determined look on her face, she could stand to be a bit dirtier though.

 

[Angrim]

I intentionally made her look kinda n00b. Like a level 1 Vault Dweller, who has just stepped out from a Vault.

Back the picture up to see a little more of the scenario would be nice, and as for the girl a little Rotgut and good to go. Very nice work.
