Artist's Comments

Another picture of Eviande. She's an elf, an OC of mine. Probably my only OC really... But the most important one!
Cept perhaps, Andromeda? Who knows. Either way, she was here first.

I forgot to draw her scar... Picture an inch long scar, right below her left eye... Her left, not yours.

I could really use some tips you guys, her eyes are all fucked up. I tried to make it realistic but apparently I fail at life, so I gave up at about her hair and choker area.


TIPS. TRICKS. HINTS. HELP ME OUT PEOPLE, PERTY PLEASE?!

What!? You FAILED on the eyes?! Have you seen my realistic eyes by any chance? You did a much better job on it, especially her left eye. Only thing I would suggest it to watch out... I think the curve of the face and the right (her right) eye is a little off.

You say this isn't good, yet I thought it looked really nice. Stop beating yourself up! Your a better artist than you think...

I'm not beating myself up, I'm just asking for critique. I don't see what's off about the right eye, and I was mainly talking about the eyelashes and it's blend into her eyelid? It's like ... looks like she has fish eyes... I don't know how to make it look like the eyes are actually a part of the face... is that understandable? haha, I can't explain it better...

Her right, our left eye does the fish eye thing (I thought). It just needs to sit back farther, instead of sticking out like how it does, which actually isn't sticking out that far. It is just far enough to throw it off is all.

And your actually explaining it fairly well. You feel that the eyes don't look like part of her face...

Hum.... looking at it again (with eyes crossing from tiredness I might note) Her eyes might be a little bit too high. That might be part of the problem

Wanna know something that might help? Get someone to pose for you, and take a picture of a face as close to this pose and angle as you can. Bring it into photoshop, and place it over this picture at maybe 50% opacity. That might help reveal a few problems. I'm not sure, but I do believe that the eyes are probably just in the wrong spot, but no less than an inch. You got it close.

You eye lashes I thought looked good. Far better than anything I've ever done...

That's a good idea, I might give that a try. See if I can fix it...

I don't think it's because they're too high, I think it's because the eyelash color is so dark, while the skin tone is too light. I need to find a way to ... mash them. Because she's going to have dark eyelashes, her hair is black, but ... I don't want to have to change her skin color.

I might start using the DeviantArt references, but I don't want to be accused of copying or tracing. I don't know. I'll see what I can do about how high they are on the face too. Cause you got to consider in the bangs too.

Yeah, they're well drawn, just really dark. I may lighten out the ends of them a bit. Not sure.
