Very very cool work author...High resolution is a must...Small nit pick, u could create a bit more consistent shadow under the model...Best of luck
I agree ... high res is definitely a must ... fascinating image!
Nice but i feel the composition needs work. The figure needs moving so it is not so centered.
I see 3 parts, the tree, the figure and a dead zone on the right where the mist is going. The mood and atmosphere is great. GL
thanks for the comments guys..i wish i had time to make the adjustments u brought up, but i dont right now..@ ibmaxed, thats great u were able to spot that because i did feel something was wrong with my image but i didnt realize what..i'll definitely work on that in the future, thanks

ok.. Now I'm on a roll.. There is still some gray around her teeth, and in the inside of her mouth, and a very little little gray spot on her tunique But that is just me being a perfectionist.. I really love what you did with the print! Nice work!

Created new river step followed same as old SB. (5 years and 3350 days ago)
Nice mood, the use of light looks nice. What bothers me a bit is the river, which looks a bit too drawn while the rest is more realistic. Try to give it a bit more perspective by making the river more subtle (more tiny further away) and think about which direction it would go if it's in such mountain like landscape (perhaps you wont see all of the river because it's partly behind a mountain). The river may also look more interesting if it wont start down in the middle but maybe more from the lower right corner (so that there's also something happening on the whole right side of your image). Up to you if you want to do something about it.. Good luck!
Thanks for your comments wazowski...
I will surely work on your suggestion!
Hay wazowski,
I have updated the river!
Certainly an improvement, imo. Good luck!
perfect mood...well done author
Thanks for your valuable comments!

Nice work
Good looking painting.
Interesting, but her necklace is off center to the rest of the image (her face and shirt).
Anatomically, her nose is a bit too long, with the tip too close to the lips and her eyes are too almond shaped (not the eyelids, but the eyeball beneath) - That can be adjusted with a wee bit more shading on the outer edges of the eyeballs, to give them a more spherical shape within the eye sockets.
Really excellent values on the shirt, and the hair is very well done!
Thanks, Mossyb.., i agree with the eyes.., and updated it. But if you have a closer look, you can see that the necklace is centered with the nose line, it is the shirt which is not centered with the face, and that makes the illusion according to your comment.. i placed the tip of the nose at center from chin to eyes (3/4 of the face) . And i can see it is the lips, that are a ittle away from the chin. More than 1/5. But, for this image it looks ok. (to me atleast.) i do had placed the lips a little downward. But that distracted the expressive look of the girl. so i am leaving it as it is.. Thanks again for your great comment...![](http://www.pxleyes.com/forum/images/smilies/4.gif)
And i found the problem of nose. It was some shading steokes that were on the right edge of the nose... Updated that too... Thanks again
This is just really well done. Rather eye candy to me. The only little suggestion I have is see if you might be able to put some definition on the center area of her nose. Right now to me it gets lost. Perhaps shade the right side just slightly darker from the middle of her nose to the right. I'm only suggesting this because I really like this and think it might help.![](http://www.pxleyes.com/forum/images/smilies/113.gif)

I'm having an annabat flash back.. LOL.. great job
Bravo on a wonderful painting and your SBS is incredible. Overall amazing job! A few things that I noticed in Hi Res ...IMO I do find the eyes a little too "symmetrical". Making them slightly different from each other would give the face more character ... also I think the eyes would benefit from tear ducts, inner lids (the part the eyelashes grow out of) and lower eyelashes. These are all very minor things, the image is truly lovely and has a style all it's own! High marks and definite fav!!!
just...WoW![](http://www.pxleyes.com/forum/images/smilies/1.gif)
