SciFi and Fantasy Art: Dancing With the Devil

*does the infamous first-comment dance* I am gonna comment on all your pictures if it's the last thing I do! I like both of their expressions, it really sets the mood of the picture. I also like the coloring. It's nice and simple.

Aaah! That IS strange that we have such similar pictures in our gallery! They're even in kind of the same position! I actually did mine early last year, though... March 2001, I believe. This is so neato, though! I lurve it! Nice expressions and coloring! =oD

That girl looks anorexic! XD!!! Nice, picture though! Just what does that guy have his hand on...hes looking at something.

Ouch! That corset looks like hell to get into...aha ha, hell, devil, bad puns, ugh. I like the way it dangles down with the lacing strip, that's really cool.

His position looks a little unnatural, but that may just be because part of him is hidden behind the dress.

I'd love to see some stronger colors in this one, because at first glance it's kind of hard for the eye to sort out what's what. Excellent work though.

I think this picture is beautiful! I wish I could draw something like it. Your a great artist.The girl is lovely. Also that is a great title"dancing with the devil" it sounds dangerous but sort of adventerous at the same time.

Hi! Thanks for answering my comment! I didn't think you were mad or anything and Thanks for inviting me to look at your other artwork. (I did already but haven't had time to comment on everything yet.)
First of all, Again, good picture. I think you have real potential. I like the unusual design of the the corset. Anatomy-wise.. This is anime style so her waist is fine. The problem is his head. It is much too large in proportion to the rest of his body. There does need to be more definition between the two of them. The eye does not discern one from the other easily. You could darken his colour or change the quality of her outline. Again, drapery needs work. People are indeed built differently and are sometimes lumpy but the lumps tend to make sense even under clothes and cloth tends to fold at logical stress points. This takes practice.. Keep at it! The expressions are great and show the feeling you expressed.

Heather Lindel replies: "Ohh you are looking at the very old old old stuff. This and the other picture you commented on are from two years ago. This one is very...annoying now. It used to be a favourite of mine, but I can't stand looking at her body. Her body looks streatched out to me with the corset and it looks like she's wearing a marshmellow. Worst of all I had to have help with the "devil" from a friend of mine (both of us have improved greatly). It doesn't look like they are moving enough and I agree that it does need more folds. Again, this stuff that you're commenting on is sooooo old (not soo old but anyways). Alot of the things here I've gotten over, but some I haven't and it's real nice that you commented and started giving your tips. Thanks. "
