After posting the first seven pics
from this set last week, the model, Rinjii, asked for four specific additional photos from that set to be cleaned up and prepared for display for her. It was a few extra hours of work, but what the heck. There's no reason why she shouldn't get the photos she wanted from the set she posed for, right? And so...

Please don't hate me! The body painting is flawlessly beautiful and you have truly done the model justice. I hope you get to use her again.

I kind of see what you're saying about the lighting there, but I really think it's just a question of the way the light was falling on her (combined with my fiddling about with the light levels), and there's not a lot I can do about it without sacrificing the artistic effect I was going for.

That is probably more than enough in the way of enthusing wildly over your work, but I am an artist and should be forgiven my moments of 'squeeee!'
Thank you for taking. My previous comment in the spirit in which it was meant. I don't think I have ever wavered so much before hitting the enter key! I understand completely what you mean about not wanting to interfere with your artistic vision. It really is a wonderful pose.

As a result of time constraints, it's generally impossible to get every line as sharply-defined, every angle as precise and every border as concrete as I would like. I always need to do a bit of polish in that respect.
The paint that I use has a couple of unfortunate shortcomings; one is that in some areas, it will chip, crack and smudge where there's a lot of movement. I do what spot repairs I can during the photo shoot, but there's always bits that need some fixing up in photoshop.
And finally, there's contrast and colour balance issues which are common to any photo shoot, which require some fiddling.
