OMG i like looking and lips looks pretty. green and tones is used beautifully and yes you are hair fetish i believe also bead +8/8

Diane  07/23/07 @759

haha, you're right I've also a bead fetish! And a horns fetish and.... a bodice fetish oO Damn, I have too much of these..... Thank you ^^

Qrumzsjem  07/23/07 @760

i agree the color is challenging. i think you did well, at least not too bad I like the detail on her cloth, it is really fantastic. but the hair down there, it makes me feel a little unnatural,not convincible.

Diane  07/23/07 @761

Thank you ^^ The hair is not intended to look natural ,at first I had planned to do a not realistic piece then I've wanted to make her a little bit more realistic but the hair has not changed I really didn't know what to do with this image....

Hybridos  07/23/07 @766

Yes there are some anatomy issues, especially in her right shoulder and hand. But you can use the Liquify effect in photoshop, give it a try, its excellent to make those fast fixes! Apart from that, this is just other masterpiece, the color scheme is very nice, you cant go wrong using complementary colors +10

Avantis  07/23/07 @767

Very well done, beautiful details and the colours are flawless

Diane  07/23/07 @767

Thank you Hybridos and Avantis I'll try to fix it

emregocen  07/23/07 @770

the lips looks very pretty.. and preparing something i like the colors and also details.. you are a good artist..

ARTOONATOR  07/23/07 @790

Great use of colour and excellent details. One thing; The eye on the left (her right eye) doesn't look at the viewer.

ThruMyEyez  07/23/07 @797

Your artwork continues to amaze Diane!! Keep up the fetishes!!

Diegoth  07/23/07 @800

I already saw this. Amazing colours and Poison Ivy looks really beautiful in here. Maybe this miss some fabric folds, but that's just me

Wallace  07/23/07 @807

Very nice Diane Vibrant colours and eye-catching composition There are some small elements as crit: The pupils are not 100% alligned, left eye is looking at the viewer right eye into the distance.. The hair is very nice overall but on some parts a bit too 'stringy'. Using the smudge tool with low opacity and hardness setting is a good way to make it a bit softer and natural Wish there was some more colour mixing in the leafes Well, you did a brilliant job on the face and clothing, well everything else + 9

ARZILLIER66  07/23/07 @810

I think this is the most amazing Poison Ivy great work Diane vous êtes incroyable! +10 excellent colors, excellent character, excellent composition

ersen-t  07/23/07 @821

great work. agree with Wallace about the leafes, maybe some red Vascular bundle.

cherryk  07/23/07 @826

Wow, this is a really gorgeous piece. That's all I can really say

cupcake  07/23/07 @826

Excellent +10

Itzpapalotl  07/23/07 @826

to me the breasts are a tad too perfect looking and the ivy too monochromatic, but its an overall great painting. ^.^

Mert  07/23/07 @832

Been waiting for this piece, just perfect Diane, another perfect job.

EideticImage  07/23/07 @850

diane , she is absolutely breathtaking

tomato04  07/23/07 @902

this is hottness =D love the hair and the eyes! oh wait...i love everything

Gavade  07/23/07 @916

The face and hair is breathtaking, excellent use of colours . . . . Awesome!

Maddagone  07/23/07 @920

the others points vin mentioned don´t disturb me… however...the first thing i noticed was the thing with the leafes... looks boring with no other color nuances... but the color contrast works marvelous. other thing is there is no fix point for the eye ...one reason is the top left corner.. the lips and eyes look strange to me^^ +9/10 great artist maddagone

JordanRoots  07/23/07 @934

I agree about the eyes not being aligned and the leaves' color variation issue already mentionned above. But I have to say this is my fav of your up to date, I just LOVE it. I really like how the mouth was before, and this one is awesome too. I'd have liked you to keep both::: of course this ain't possible, except if you want her to have two mouths. I really dig the hairdo. Awesome work! p.s. I think you really should correct those minor issues coz this work is stunning.

Madanapale  07/23/07 @942

Beautiful work!.....the colors are wonderful! Carlos

Diane  07/23/07 @954

Thank you very much guys! I've fixed the parts that were wrong... not totally fixed maybe, but at least it's a little bit better

Ikaa  07/24/07 @982

...an excellent interpretation of the wonderful 'Poison Ivy'. Great work Diane!

Andy--Jones  07/24/07 @989

Top notch as I have already said. The lip biting bit I like very much.

Excorbac  07/24/07 @994

Lady Diane, Truly wonderful lightings! Simply great (sorry but I didn't find anatomy issues here!?)

trevorm  07/24/07 @000

F'n amazing work, Diane! Your one tremendously talented gal.

blackshad  07/24/07 @055

fantastic hairs, make up and clothing great work +10

alebrije  07/24/07 @067

The best paint of this character that i ever seen...

JordanRoots  07/24/07 @168

Good! The eyes are not cross sided anymore It's hard to see when it's our own painting, I understand you not seeing it at first. I can definitely see improvement in the leaves' color variations. Again, I must say the hair is totally stunning.

mysticcat  07/24/07 @176

I agree with Vincent about the leaves - they look too boring compared to the colourful character. The hair is really... wow... (though I expect to see more green in it. It's too red for my taste). The rest is totally perfect +9/9 .

archanN  07/24/07 @176

As i said on dA, its is absolutely fabulous!

slickgreekgeo  07/24/07 @185

Easily your best work in terms of color. Using Red/Green is very difficult to pull off, and what did here is... phenomenal. The leaves are very nicely done, although slightly flat. Lastly, the figure looks hot as hell. +10

starqueen  07/24/07 @250

You have such a way with hair that seems so natural and illuminating. This is a beautiful piece... I would say that sometimes the clothing looks a bit neon, that perhaps it shouldn't be that full of saturation given the lighting, but, meh. +10 hehe

Freiz  07/24/07 @257

Absolutely beautiful! The details of the eyes I like the best, and the application of color in this piece is simply delectable. Colorwise, this is probably one of my favorites among your works.

TreKKer  07/24/07 @259

Yes, its exactly Poison Evy. +10

kittyKat  07/24/07 @302

this kicks major a$$!!!! I added you!---> http://pamzylove.deviantart.com/journal/12861737/ thank you so much for submitting your work! you rock!!! =D

ADY  07/24/07 @335

Excellent!

mefisto  07/24/07 @444

wow as i said portrais are your master-discipline... this one shows how good you are... i like it very much! but try to do some completly different

aniocean  07/24/07 @458

Cant stop looking at it I am amazed with your painting skills. I dont know how long I need to be this professional level KEEP GOING

Diane  07/24/07 @473

Thank you very much guys! About the people who tell me each time to do something completely different (nope mefisto, don't worry, it's not only for you ) : I'm doing a lot of different things for commissionned projects so I try to paint what I like when I have free time Btw, my last pieces are completely different! (pirate, chimaera, music daydreamer... lord of nightmares is also different and would you be my valentine is, too.... I dunno what I should do... I know that I don't paint the lower body very often, that's not that I can't do it, actually it's one of the easiest things IMO, but I'm challenging myself trying to improve the way I paint the upper body) I don't like painting landscapes at all -though I'm doing it for commissionned pieces- so I keep painting characters I like to paint Not to sound rude, I'm sorry if you're tired of my work, but I don't feel like doing a huge orc on a mechanical horse or a cityscape or something else for now.... Thank you very much for your comments and crits! Much appreciated!

mefisto  07/24/07 @534

hehe okai^^ why not a mechanical dragon-org with 5 heads whichs is climbing up a big skyscraper

Diane  07/24/07 @538

lol why not? ^^ I have done lots of dragons btw, not posted them though (they need some refinement...) I may post some commissioned work here someday so you can see how different it is (vehicles, landscapes, etc....), I don't have the authorization to do it for now though

aiscape  07/24/07 @562

Amazing work. Stunning.

Jane  07/24/07 @567

Isn't it really annoying when you have painted things you'd like to show, but you can'tpublish it because it's commissioned work? Great colours in this one. The woman has a stronge sense of presence, although the eyes make her facial expression rather anonymous (spelled correctly?). The ornament above the eyes is great though, and I like how realisticly she twists her lips. The small red pearls on the chest part of the dress are beautifully painted, and look very real!

SudnDeath  07/24/07 @675

great work - looks excellent +10

marcotronic  07/24/07 @684

absolutely mind-blowing. +9/9 Marco

Pirotess  07/24/07 @751

Daykan  07/24/07 @822

wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!! You´re wonderful!!!! It´s simply PERFECT!

michelle84  07/24/07 @827

*________* Sweet mother, that's awesome!!! Your attention to the details in the hair is beautiful and your use of the brilliant reds and greens came out so vividly! Top points!

dakoo  07/24/07 @842

Amazing work Diane !! I love the colors !! Maybe needs more on the leaves !! Top Marks !!

Ztak  07/24/07 @933

This is just absolutely amazing just like all your artwork...only crits I can think of in this piece is the left arm's fingernails...they look just a liiiitlle bit loose or something to me (sorry that I mentioned it eventhough you have done so much work on the piece...) Anyways I always look foward seeing another artwork from you. Keep up the great work!

Gianna23  07/25/07 @969

There is nothing for me to say but this is BEAUTIFUL! A wonderful job!

Redredwine  07/25/07 @128

a difficult assignment... with color limitations? The depth of field is decent and not unnoticed on the hair. Very good use of a somewhat limited palette. do the props have meaning?

bsnt  07/25/07 @535

Beautiful work !!

Diane  07/25/07 @596

Thank you very much guys! Janne : that's indeed very frustrating! But I guess that I'll be able to publish them once the project is released.... Ztak : thanks! I must admit that I've not paid a lot of attention to the fingernails.... Redredwine : I didn't have to limit the use of colours but I've tried to do so because I wanted to challenge myself using colours I tend to avoid (in fact, I've already used red and green in the past, but I've never used such saturated ones.... ) thanks

moserArtist  07/25/07 @648

Wow! Amazing work from a very talented artist!!! Did you use Ms Michelle Lynn as your mental reference (referring to the dragonfly! )...

Daykan  07/25/07 @865

I´m here again!.. wow.... O.o

Saimain  07/26/07 @454

Beautiful colors! I especially love the mottled shadows on her skin; that effect is particularly hard to create. ^__^

Jenna20  07/26/07 @535

Wonderful!!Those colours are amazing!

monjo  07/26/07 @551

Awesome work Diane. I love it! John

Diane  07/26/07 @583

Thank you very much Patrick, Matias, Adele, Jenna and John I'm glad you like it Patrick : in fact, I had just seen this specie during a walk ^^ I had took some shots of it last year, I love this little red dragonfly!

oldskool87  07/26/07 @604

fumera  07/26/07 @685

Elitha  07/31/07 @840

I shall hate you for your incredible painting skills! Seriously though, this painting is gprgeous. I can't imagine why you wouldn't be 100% happy with it. And I also love looking at your wips -- they help me learn a little

venomsblood  10/30/07 @299

The only problems I see is the left arm, alittle bit of a weird position, the neck alittle bit - not much though.. Oh she's lip biting I thought that was a mistake. I like that you have made her lip biting makes her look like she's doing the 'Sexy' look . I really love the colours so stunning Great greens and reds and yellows. The eyes are great . Lovely work!, I really really love it. Beautiful work, Diane. Must have taken a long while . I admire your work! +10 Rae PS: She kind of reminds of a Christmas kind of thing too.. Poison Ivy is one of my favourite characters .
