Beautiful portrait, the model is pretty, the white dress and bed with the black found give something nice, maybe we could see her eyes
good job

dancingelf In reply to SeaWavesFoam [2008-01-03 20:45:01 +0000 UTC]

Oh it's not a dress, just a blouse and some random sheet around her legs!!! But everyone seems to think it's a dress!
Thanks a lot!

....μα μήπως το έχεις παρακάνει με το desaturate και με το "γλείψιμο" των επιφανειών - γενικά; Αν δεν βάζεις εντάσεις εδώ κι εκεί (ξέρεις εσύ ) τότε ίσως θέλει κανένα φίλτρο ή κανένα άλλο "συγχωνευμένο" layer για να του δώσεις και κάποια υφή (νταγκεροτυπία ας πούμε, παλιωμένη φωτογραφία κλπ ), να "σπάσει" η τελειότητα.

ElenaTria In reply to dancingelf [2008-01-03 20:54:33 +0000 UTC]

Εγώ δοκιμάζω ό,τι φίλτρο βρω μπροστά μου (ξέρεις, στο "filters" ) και τα αγαπημένα μου είναι στο texture -> grain -> normal, speckle ή vertical. Επίσης το diffuse-> glow είναι πολύ καλό, δίνει μια υφή σαν κουφέτο.
Αλλά γενικά θα πρέπει να κατεβάσουμε textures από το dA για να τα "ενώσουμε" με τις φωτογραφίες μας (ξέρεις, σ'εκείνο το menu -layers, νομίζω- όπου συγχωνεύεις/συνδυάζεις τα layers με διάφορους τρόπους και με διάφορους βαθμούς διαφάνειας.

Or something like that perhaps?

dancingelf In reply to crystalthorn [2007-12-28 22:12:42 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, but it's not a dress!! It's a blouse and I just used a white fabric around her to hide her upper legs part! Seems many have mistaken it for a dress though haha!

TThealer56 [2007-12-28 00:56:08 +0000 UTC]

Overall, this is an absolutely wonderful photo! Only one suggestion, have your models relax their hands, curled fingers tend to look like "clubs", so always have them relax the hands and allow them to flow...........
Unless of course they are missing a finger or something like that!

dancingelf In reply to TThealer56 [2007-12-31 02:05:02 +0000 UTC]

Hahaha!! Thankfully I've worked with whole people so far, so none of these problems has arisen!!
Thanks, I'll try to remember it for future shots!

Well, like I said, you do some wonderful work. To me it looks like you are down to learning the little bitty details now!

dancingelf In reply to TThealer56 [2007-12-31 11:33:26 +0000 UTC]

Nah, I feel I'm still learning the basics. I think I'll always be learning the basics and the details alltogether!! No artist can reach perfection in his eyes - if he does, he is no longer an artist for he sees no reason in continuing making art!

Beautiful, and I like the name. If you get the feel for manip this sometime I think a window with moon and/or a vintage streetlight to the upper left would be lovely (if you don't find it too cliché of course ) and also adding some colour to the items she's holding. Like red.

dancingelf In reply to Hera-of-Stockholm [2007-12-27 19:09:57 +0000 UTC]

Haha, you've got a wild imagination when it comes to manipulating!!
The things she holds were actually blue, but yeah I'll add some colour to this photo!
Thanks!

Αφού τα καταφέρνεις με το μαύρο φόντο, θα μου άρεσε να δω ένα τέτοιο πορτρέτο τελείως απομονωμένο, μόνο η "other sister" ( ) χωρίς τίποτε άλλο γύρω της.
Χρόνια πολλά και πάντα με λεία επιδερμίδα.
