Description

"Mein Herz brennt"

I am very disappointed about all the recent fighting on GFX, so sorry for basically unpublishing all my artworks. This painting shall represent in some way how I am feeling about that. GFX used to be my favorite art community in the past....

And all my best wishes go to http://wallace.gfxartist.com who has been so badly mobbed :/

PS: As if this was of further interest, but it goes with the current site politics; this girl has been referenced from Natalie Portman, you can see her in the tutorial.

Bye

Hm...betrachtet man ihr nasenbein liegen ihre Augen zu tief und dadurch wirkt das Gesicht zu stark zusammengedrückt. Außerdem wirken die Augen allgemein irgendwie pberladen mit den ganzen glasigen Schein. Der Mund ist vlt. 'n bisschen groß für ihren schmalen Kiefer.
Wahrscheinlich solltest du's wieder spiegeln damit's besser aussieht.

Krieg ich jetzt'n Keks? Oder zwei? ^^

Hm ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob das mein Problem komplett beheben wird muss ich mal ausprobieren.
Probiere gerade eine andere Komposition au und fands so rum gespiegelt momentan auch besser.

Edit: heh, also der Tip mit dem Nasenbein war echt gut due kriegst ne Kekspackung ^-^

Ah, there are some really lovely aspects of this painting, yet my feelings are somewhat mixed. Perhaps this is because the picture itself appears conflicted: you have these gorgeously rendered--if I didn't know better, I'd say photographic--eyes and mouth coupled with carelessly drawn ribbons or straps--and everything in between in terms of degree of polish. I've seen some wonderful results from mixing crisp, fully rendered focal points with blurrier areas, but I think the disparity is too great here, especially since the content is very simple and straightforward. Just my opinion on the matter, of course. I'm also not quite satisfied with the composition; yes, it's a portrait, but I feel that her head is a little too centered.
Anyway, you've proven that you can do some stunning work with this one--those eyes and lips are so drool/melt-inducing--but I hunger for more!

cool painting, i think you've done a great work (agree with Inabottle about the eyes, I like her look), and also like the hair (thumbup)... I don't know much of painting, but if something's missing, i think it is sharpness, specially around the hair; and the hole figure mixes very smoothly with the background.... I would also work more in the background and the body (it's like too smooth and shiny).... mmh... maybe the left part (her right) of the nose looks a bit weird, but it's a detail.... that's my opinion, I hope it helps.......... but overall, I think it's a very nice paiting

Umm...this looks like Natalie Portman.I can't believe no one else has pointed this out yet.Be nice if you'd say you used a photo of her for reference.I agree witht the other crits and overall,it's a very nice piece.

 06/26/06 @138

Oh yes yerffej. For every character we (our working group) have pointed out a celeb sothat everyone knows what they look like.
For this girl we chose Keira Knightly and Natalie Portman :)
Tis linked up above now in a nice tutorial ;)

Rammstein - Mein Herz Brennt is one of the best metal songs ever.. though I don't understand a word, but the music rocks.

whoa, very pretty. I like the fringe and the eyes and the lips. Very realistic! Max points!

 06/26/06 @515

The compo is not very original,you know - it lackes a dramma in a layout) And background doesn't make anything to the whole atmosphere..Her hair seem to be unfinished - even if you did it for purpose,it still need some work on,as well as her nose.Her dress could use some detailes too..
I love her expression.Eyes're awesome and mouth's great and very expressive
Nise skin tones, probably you could add more of the blue bg at the shadow on her neck, I'm not sure

you know this is absolutely wonderful. i love the way youre progressing as an artist but its missing a bit of finishing. the face is wonderfully crisp and alluring but then when you get to the rest of the body and its sort of blurred out. this could have been a really awesome noveau-rembrandtesque painting.

 06/27/06 @181

Hm, yes I added some blur to keep the focus more on the face :S

I love this work, it's a very sensitive, touching work. The emotion pours from her eyes, the soft BG and the slightly blured areas just enhance this mood and emotion for me. I'm drawn instantly into the work, as if I'm sitting with her, comforting her.
Beautiful my friend, Keith

Wow! she looks SO realistic. Is it a picture? :) no just kidding. She gorgeous. The main crit I have is that I think her ear is a bit too blurry . She looks like she'S about to cry, that she has just been announced something awful. Perfect hair!

I like the title. Rammstein is one of my favorite bands :) She is very beautiful nothing really needs to be added, but her neck muscles and the indent just under her throat could have been more prominent.
