Kris Knight Art - Critiques always Welcome, as I am here to improve
-
tools I used:
liquify(to change eyes size and position, arm, neck, ear, hair volume..)
new layers in different modes: overlay, color (to color even more the shadow zones with the hair's color), soft light, normal
color adjustment
hue/saturation adjustment (affecting only magentas) -
@Alberto-M
Thanks a bunch Alberto! :). If you can think of any tutorials anywhere that might help me I would love to hear your suggestions. Thanks again! I've got a bunch of stuff I have to do today but I will be playing with this image again when I get time and attempt your suggestions :). -
look the tool name and google it, that, then play around, I don't know the exact english name for them

@Alberto-M
I know where all the tools are and blending modes that you mentioned... I'm just not wonderful yet at using them to their potential -
@Kris-Knight it's about messing around, remember to play with opacity too, because most times it won't help at 100%

@Alberto-M
Here we go again
Played around with a few different adjustment layers as well as messing with the eyes, back, sleeve, chin, ear, hair, rose, background light. Hope this looks like the right direction lol.

@Kris-Knight Love the rendering and the concept. What I think is: why is she looking so sad, wile the colors are so bright? it doesn't seem to fit together. Why is the bow red? can you try to make a version where the colors are toned down? It al seems a bit out of place. The white of the sleeve has to much detail. the rest hasn't got any winkles and suddenly the sleeve has. that looks a bit awkward. If you flip the illustration you can see that the face needs some work, The nose should stick out more.
good luck!

Well, Good or Bad I'm going to call this one done. lol What was it Jake said, "Not perfect but done." Something like that anyway. I appreciate all the critiques!!! It gave me lots to think about as well as trying to fix some issues that others saw. Thanks a Bunch!!!

@Kris-Knight I agree with Rob. Evey time you make a new one, your improving yourself! Well done!
