Sorry for resubmitting! I spotted a problem with the version I submitted yesterday which couldn't be rectified quickly so I had to delete it! Anyway, I'm really happy with it now so hope you like it!

This picture from ~F2FStocks is so awesome I had to use it! :D
Another attempt at drawing hair! :blush:

Critiques


:iconvagabondvagrant:
Like most of your work it is lovely. I love the choice of colours which seem to blend together perfectly, creating one single image instead of a cluster of separate elements. The dark hair and the white face creates enough contrast for me to pull my eye to the model right away, while the lighter/darker clouds almost give her an angelic glow/halo.
Only 2 small points. The swan somehow looks a bit out of place, or maybe it's due to the rocks on the other side visible trough the water, yet the bottom part of the swan just vanishes.
The other little quirk that caught my eye is the transparency of the cloth she holds up. While it is clearly transparent near ehr waist, at the bottom left of it it completely overlaps the dark black rock and thus seems to have lost it's translucency.
But aside from that, the clothing looks really great and feels very real, all in all, a very nice job (and that's me saying so with a jealous mindset to boot!)

The color scheme to this piece looks absolutely wonderful. I love the gold and pink of her clothes in contrast with the gorgeous turquoise of the whole image.

I am not sure about that swan there, or the isolated clump of birds... it seems like the birds would work better lower and more in the distance, and the swan fights just a little bit for my attention when I feel like I should be looking closer at the girl. This may just be me nitpicking to try to come up with something to criticize, since I find all of your work absolutely amazing... but I thought I'd throw it out there anyway.

I think you did a wonderful job at making the hair look like... well.. hair. I am not sure if your intent was to make it look unrealistically snaky and clumped into defined pieces. If so, disregard this... if not, I would recommend looking at some photographs of women with their hair being blown back. It seems like there should be more larger clumps in the center, and even possible one large mass of hair that the small tendrils are coming from. It would also be good to always map out where on the head the hair is coming from. The thicker tendrils near her shoulder seem to be coming from her back rather than somewhere on her head. I think a thicker mass of hair right around her shoulder and neck would help that look out greatly.

Thank you for sharing your artwork with us :)
