Some of you may recognize this one; I posted it back in January. Well we�ve just had so many new faces here in Sijun (something like 2000+) since I completed this piece I thought I�d share it with the new people.
You may also have seen my airbrushed version last week in my �traditional airbush� thread, I�m sure its on page 5 by now�.

This is still one of my favorites

Edit:
FYI she is a remake of this picture done ~3 years ago (anime)

I like the mood in the picture, the atmosphere is good.
But you should work more hard on anatomy and perspective. There are quiet many mistakes. The proportions of her head are wrong, lips have wrong perspective. The hair does not fin the shape of her head. The perspective and anatomy of her hands is wrong. The shape of her transparent cloths is somehow weird. Her eyebrows are way to strange.
Her belly muscles or whatever you might call em are wrong, looks more like a wound or like she is trying to rip of her body with her own hands.
The perspective of her panties is wrong.
I would suggest you spend more time on sketching, this way you learn more then sticking around with colours to much. I know it is fun colouring the images but imagine how many sketches you could have made in the same time.

Have a nice day

i think i no whats wrong with the jacket - shes stretching it in the picture, right? But then if u look at the shoulders its not even toucking the skin.

but other than that and what randis said i like this piece.

Randis, it may have been easier to tell me what was not wrong Smile
But seriously, I did do several sketches of her working out a few quirks here and there. My problem is that I just don�t see what you are seeing, I�m not saying that your wrong or anything its just �.well� I cant see it.
However, I have been told her face is a little flat and I can see that and I think I can see what you mean with here lips. Her eyebrows, well she�s not human Smile

I will keep all this to mind though, I�m thinking about painting another picture based off her pose.

CwStone: you are right.
I was never a good chess player, to be a good chess player you need to see many steps ahead and I was only able to see 1 step ahead and I usually end up doing something else first forgetting my previous strategy. I probably planned on making the shoulders look like she was stretching her shirt but forgot all about it by the time I got to it.

Heh, Randis, I Think you pointed out what may be my problem with Niamh and I didn�t even realize it. For about 8 years all I ever drew was Anime, used anime as reference, and ignored True anatomy in favor of anime anatomy and now its biting me in the ass, well, not that bad now but it has still effected my style to some degree.

(in reference to moe�s comic coloring post )
