d i g i t a l _ a r t _ 1 SLIDING INTO ERNITY..., the "Leaf Woman"

Slide into the deepth of your soul...

Another concept (it seems that I am very "involved" lately, maybe

because in one week I will be at holidays?;)

Any written critique or comment will be very appreciated.

Regards,

Mirko

I like it! BK

Hi Mirko: I think this works very well, especially the way the narrow staircase seems to justify the elongation of your model. My only suggestions would be to keep just a little more detail at the top of the stairs and perhaps to soften and perhaps blur the edges of the hard shadows on the model to get a better match between the light quality on your subject and the lighting in the background.--jim

why???I may be wrong, but I see three images here that seem to be digitally superimposed- the stairs, the model, and her clothing (dress?) your model is beautiful, she is well lit, has a wonderful expression, and is in a great pose. She would make a great shot alone. Why manipulate? the stairs make a good background, but the stretching hurts me. I want to crop to just a bust to eliminate signs of elongation.

- Jim, thanks for the comments and suggestions: basically the environment pict comes from the underground of a castle and.. it was just in this way (I could not leave anything up because the pict was overlighted there!;) and somehow I like not to control ALL in the scene but add elements which have their own story - this is one thing that makes close the digital art to painting = not to control all). Moreover, if you look carefully, you will see that the dress is just an old leaf (the real name of the work is LEAF WOMAN in facts). But I agree about the light on the face of the model (I have the FINAL version... even with the figure's shadow on the wallw hich now is missed)

- Evan, thanks for your comments. But I am not here to show the beauty of the model (which is independent from me;) There are many portraits & nude potographers much better than me so...;) In this sections (Digital Art) you can only see vision from dreams...

Over all its very nice shot. But it needs more treatment for its finishing. Like the leg of model on right side is disappeard I don't know you disappeard it your self or you didn't feel it. Again well done. Keep it up. Batoor

Thanks Barat for your comment... anyway the model's leg is ok in this way (in the concept it is suppose to not exist;) Of course the "empty hole" is done on porpouse.

best,

Mirko

Bene Valete Mirko! S.M.

Nicely done with the stair and the drape, but I miss seeing her legs.

Molto bella e ben realizzata. Solo un piccolo punto (secondo me): avrei sfumato un po' i contorni della modella, soprattutto il fianco a sinistra verso le scale. C'e' una riga netta scura che risulta un po' troppo dura.

ciao Ghiga: hai ragione, sono d'accordo anch'io;)

Grazie per il commento
