Done with Microns, Rapidographs, and a little Pro White here and there.

Great job.

Why on earth did you quote his image, noface?

Thighs too stubby and right boob bigger than left. I like the way everything from the head to the neck came out, though.

It's not a big deal, guy...

I see what you're saying, but I wasn't trying to do an anatomically correct figure drawing.

the crit was a good one. her right breast, given the angle and the size of the other one, should be a bit larger. also, i think that her left foot (our right) looks strange. unless she is tipping it forward the perspective is off a bit. as for such subjective terms as "stubby" i think it comes down to personal preference/experience..

this is a really nice, clean piece with some minor flaws. keep up the good work.

I didn't say it wasn't. Please don't make the mistake of "hearing" my responses to critiques as some sort of spiteful back talking. I already went through that once here. I'm not trying to assuage a hurt ego by responding that I meant to make one breast bigger than the other. It's the simple truth--one can accept it or not.

also, i think that her left foot (our right) looks strange. unless she is tipping it forward the perspective is off a bit.

That boot tip's supposed to be flat, facing you. I could re-work the white highlight line on that leg differently to make that come across better. Thanks!

...as for such subjective terms as "stubby" i think it comes down to personal preference/experience...

To me such considerations (a dude not realizing that a woman's breasts aren't necessarily the same size; or his never having met anyone with a short torso and long legs, ad inf.) are irrelevant to a critique of the ink lines, which is what I'm looking for.

BTW, my name is spelled R-a-S-m-a-n-e. (See, I can nitpick "irrelevancies" as well as the next guy!)

Thanks for lookin'!

ok. but i think you need to understand that when you create a symbol to represent something, in this case a woman, that symbol has to meet certain criteria that any body who was born with the gift of sight can sense. even untrained people can readily pick out proportion problems. it's natural. that's one of the reasons why exaggerating anatomy is so much fun, seeing how you can play with those perceptions without going too far.

i don't think this has gone to far and i dig it. i still say that the breast thing is distracting because, right or not, we expect a certain degree of symmetry. just something to keep in mind when you work on the next one.

thanks for this dialog. I like the pic. she's-bootylicious. It feels good. The foot is wierd, but everything else is cool and if this were ina comic witha zillion other images swirling around I wouldn't notice the foot.
