Congrats on first post as elite!
You know.... I can't find words for how good this is... The hair, or what I should call it, is very very nice. You manage to get such depth into your drawings! It amazes me.
Perfect. :)

Yes, the eye is supposed to be off because it's broken, but I should have made it more off.... thanks for your comment ;)

Pam, you're too kind ;)
 
Avatar blackdragon

 07/14/05 @928

Wow that's awesome Diane... Really well done and heaps of detail there. I do have a comment to make here though. The eye...yes I know it's broken but I feel it kind of throws everything off somewhat you know... maybe if it was in position but just pointed in a different direction of something it would have the desired effect without making it take over the image. Or maybe thats what you wanted?

Everything is top notch with your pencil work Diane Outstanding work... Well done.

 07/14/05 @928

:) Beautiful shading and textures
:) Love that metal hair
:) Quite atmospheric and forlorn
:( Perhaps a little more definition in the shadows on the face. I would expect the hair to cast some quite sharp shadows
...er, that's about it. Only one :( ? What are things coming to?

Avatar Diane

 07/14/05 @933

Thank you very much blackdragon and BaronImpossible :) I know the eye is not very nice.... I'll do better next time ;)
BaronImpossible : I agree with you about the shading, I wanted the skin to look very soft, but it would be better if it was more defined :) I've been very busy last week so I've not had time to do more, but I'll work this week ;)
Thanks again for your comments :)

Hey PinkD, that is just wonderfull, having seen the work in progress I have to say that this turned out very well indeed. All my points
 
Avatar YIIT

 07/15/05 @362

Well,i have to say you work is quite detailed for a small sized paper.Wonder what you can do on a A5...or bigger,the better.. A3 Nice details,however,no Background? ,it would add alot if you could have added some background...I do not see anything wrong with the eye..According to the left eye and the torn eye lids of the right eye,the right eye is right where its suppose to be....But what everyone is seeing and missguessing (??is that a word??) is that the dark hole on the right side of the forehead is causing such a contrast that it makes the round right eye seem misplaced...However the position of the head plays a major effect on this feeling of misplacement....Anyway good work (thumbup)7/7

Wooow, so much comments Thank you very much ppl!

YIIT : I think you're right about the contrast, I've tried to "construct" a proportioned face over the drawing on a layer in photoshop, and the eyes are well placed... I really thought it was off too. The angle of the face really plays on this feeling! Thanks for your crit ;)

Ahhhh...a Giger-like image. Love it!!! The shading seems a little too saturated, and the alignment of the eyes are a little off I think. ::shrugs:: Great job though.
