Greetings all  Another long-time lurker/first time poster here, finally working up the courage to post something. Really quick intro: I'm currently a student in the illustration program at Sheridan College.
Thanks in advance for any comments and crits.. there's some great talent at these forums!
Regarding the image, I wasn't aiming for complete realism, but something a bit more stylized. Yes, her neck is quite long

Well, I think you gave yourself the best crits before anyone else had a chance to chime in.
Absolutely beautiful work! Very atmospheric.  |

Nice, in an eerie stylized way.

Thanks for your comments! I guess it's harder to crit a stylized piece

The colours, atmosphere, costume design and great rendering is a veeery nice introduction I'd say! For critique I'd say the anatomy has some issues, her arms and hands are oddly shaped. But the piece itself is so beautful that you could have gotten away with anything
Welcome aboard, Topaz
