hi guys,

this started off as a photo-portrait of my dearest friend in the whole wide world, but as i detailed the pic it didn't really look like her, so i decided to put my own personal touches in and make the girl in the pic my own creation... :P

drag this to your address bar

just like to know what you guys think of her... i haven't really put any shading or creases on her t-shirt yet, but aside from that, and maybe a fuzzy background, i'm almost done... :P oh, and btw, the current background is just a simple gradient, and isn't meant to show the lightsource... :P

cheers,
teck

That grey background doesn't really work well with the portrait. Try experimenting with the hue/saturation and replace color thingies in PS. Sometimes those can give you inspiration for colorschemes.

My japanese is very poor, mainly because Im a swede... :P
[something] is/are, right(female version)?
one would perhaps reply, "Hai, kanojowa kawaii desu!" to that?

you need some glasses....its very unsharp.

try to draw with the pencil and brush tool(hard edged) the face itself is okay. But a bit flat...it looks like the neck goes directly into the face... a bit more deep. and a bit more sharp and it would be okay.... okay...that grey background...hmmm change it also...

MK: thanks, i wasn't sure about the neck, actually... there was supposed to be a more obvious demarcation between neck and chin... :P i'll try and darken the neck a little... as for the unsharpness of it, i agree, but i've been using a touchpad so far, and was working mainly with the airbrush... i'm working on the sharpness of it though, but it's painfully slow... :P

the background will definitely be changed, i'm trying to go for a "fuzzy, out-of-focus" background, a-la a closeup photo... :P

cheers,
teck
