"The Spell" - Getting Close To Done (121)

[WingedOne]

I'm getting close to finished. I know I still have to fix up the left hand and the frog isn't done. Any 121 would be appreciated.

I'm in awe. This is going to be an amazing image.
You've done a great job with the robe. The coloring looks so irredescent. The frog's eyes are beautiful. And the overall image has a magical quality.
The only area I can see a slight touch up are the left fingers, which you had planned on. The shadows hide nicely them though compared to the earlier posts.
Can't wait to see the finished image. :tu:

Send this to Animerica Magazine in San Francisco-or Viz.com -It would be praised to the sky !! Wow what a good Anime image !!!

I learnt something from watching this image progress. I never made a sketch of any of theimages I have done, I just jumped in and applied paint. Now I know I can make a sketch and develop it untill I get it right and then proceed. Thanks very much.

I am sorry that I forgot to mention this in my last post. As someone mentioned before, the wand still appear to be floating between her fingers.

Thanks for the comments. I'll take your suggestions into Animerica and Viz.com into consideration Robotalk. However, from what I've seen it seems that Animerica prefers their fan-art to be hand-drawn on paper. I'll look into Viz.com as well.

I had accidentily saved over the last version with a completely different ZBrush picture and had to re-do about two to three hours worth of work. Aaaaarrrrrgh! I'm sure that people that were calling me Sunday night were wondering why I was in such a foul mood. :) Fortunately, I had previous versions saved, so I could pick up from the previous one. I have a new hand tool that I did for the left hand, but I haven't incorporated it into the image yet. I should have the final version done soon.

Fantastic progress WingedOne, the highlites on her robe is just perfect and I dig that hair :tu: :tu: :tu:

I guess my only pick would be, even though I love the gradient fading purple of the sky the gradient lines detract from the image to me, I would like to see it unlined. Perhaps a gradient fog would work (if it isn't already fog)

[WingedOne]

I think the lines in the sky are from the jpeg compression. They don't show up in the .BMP version. :( But I had to do a lot of compression so I could get the image under the 200 k limit for the forum.
