Arrg!Again with the tacky titles! But she *does* look like some kinda ice maiden when she's blue^^ Anyway, this is an edited version of the 'Scantilly Clad Woman' pic that's somewhere else in my elfwood gallery. The reason I did it was I'm actually quite proud of her head (even though it was never meant to be viewd as a close up) which was too small to really see clearly in the original. So I took the full sized head and dropped it over a flipped version of the original picture only without the magical lights (they clutterd the picture and drew the eye away). Then I turned her blue and lowered the saturation of certain parts of the pic. I've just noticed she doesn't have any ear holes O.o;; Oops! And one of the ivy leaves on the facial closup area hasn't got any veins or anything! Rats! Well I'm not gonna put it right now, I've done enough work today.

AAAHHH!!! She's beautiful!! THis is a gorgeous picture. By the way her face is shaped, she kinda reminds me of a more realistic version of the show Reboot!

Very nice version of the Scantily Clad Maiden...the blue tones are in tune with the pic...she definitely looks like Patricia Arquette to me...did you use a photo reference? (if so, it could be a very nice portrait of her in a film we probably won't get the chance to see anywhere except in the Elfwoods)

I think I like this version of her better too. However, they are both quite good.

The blue tones are so pretty, and I love the feathers! Never could do feathers.... Hehe, and honestly, I didn't notice that she was missing hear holes until you told!

The skin is so smooth and pretty, but she'd look much prettier if you lowered the brows and eyes a bit & made them bigger (the eyes, not eyebrows)-- but that's just my opinion (I'm a bit weird sometimes, just ignore me if I offend you). What ever facial scrub she's using, I want. Smooth... Pretty... *Drool* And btw, I like this one better than your Scantly Clad woman 2 I just love the details the close up of the face gives!

I've got a new name, don't know how it came to me but "Winter Wolf" possibly, if you want a new name.
You seemed in need, so,I thought I'd give you my idea.
Your work is simply amzing! Keep it up!

She's grogeous, I love the blue hues, i really enjoy working with black and white or one additional color, normally blue 12 I can't believe this hasn't gotten a mod's choice yet!
