Hiya thx so much for the comments :) Yes Scarlett is quite a challenge as a subject since she has so many unique facial features that make her recognizable. The first attempt was pretty bad and your comments are spot on about them :) I must admit that I got pretty frustrated with scarlett1 and sort of left it unfinished, with the shadows and bg put in but not finessed in anyway; since the main subject was off model lol. However, I still thought it was valuable to post to show a progression. The blurred areas versus the sharp areas I suppose is how I've been painting, starting off with a very soft overall version of tones, then going in and fleshing out the details. Thx for the comment about the male's hair, it needs a bit more spec to match the photographic reference, however, I thought by leaving it as a subtle feature, it would be a nice detail for those eyes who want to look at it in depth.
Well believe it or not, I love it I get critiqued on everything that I post, whether it's a short story, pics, or paintings, even screenshots lol - although since I haven't played ffxi for quite some time now, sshots will probably not appear as much.
