Did you... stretch... Sylvia? Hmmm? What did we talk about? Never stretch the porn stars.

But, seriously, I agree she does look a bit squat. Did you resize you reference when you worked? If so did you hold down the allmighty shift key to scale proportionately?

Ok now I'm gonna go look at pictures of Sylvia Saint.

Then what are you doing here dammit!? Get to work. If you got to let some details go, work from nearest us to farthest away. If the far away stuff is a little rough you can call it atmospheric perspective.

Still one of my favorites.

Nah I always click the shift key, I think its just that I added the shoulder pads and the arms that make her look wider, Its meant to be like a torn up slutty Tank Men uniform with camel toe

Well, I've got most of the basic detail down and some second level detail, but I want to go further and that would take many more hours.

Working like mad on PS as we speak :p

Here's your piece resized. I took the liberty of upping the brightness and contrast a little. As it was a bit dark and muddy.

For me, this contest was a swift-kick-to-the-...skull reminder of how horrible I am with photoshop and photorealism! It isn't actually done, and the background is just a image from google... but I wanted to feel like I participated. lol!

I know, I know! I fail! blah! :P

ahah tell me about it.
at least you got far more done then i did.
but i just wanted post it as it was anyways

I also need practice with photoshop

I salute you my brother in art...I need to re-check but you and I might be the only people to actually paint our entries. With like, paint. As a friend would say: YOu are free to Rock out with your Cock out anytime. I think it's a compliment so I pass it on to you.

Good job! You must be really proud!

Looks awesome man.

I do have a note though. Her skin color looks really flat and bright, and kind of out of place. It seems like the light in the elevator effects the background and the girl's skin independently. It gets nigh black in the dark spots of the elevator. But the gradient from the light parts of her skin to the dark parts is very slight.

I think getting photo realism is easy enough, it just takes a bloody long ass time to do, and you need to work on a large scale, I was being an idiot and drawing mine at 700x560 from the start when I should have been drawing larger and just resised afterwards once finished.

woot thx. and go us oldschool painters. gotta stick together! \

and I agree with the "photo realism needing to be done on a large scale" comment made by... whoever... if my scanner was bigger i would so have done a full scale canvas... but alas i have no digital camera so... had to keep it small. And crap it was hard to do, (especially the face) with such a tiny brush.
Any way this contest rocked hardcore. Inspired some pretty awesome art. good job guys
:D
may the best man/women win!

I've never done any photorealism before; i don't think mine came out very realistic either, its not really my preference. But large scale definately helped either way. Luckily my reference was fairly large, but it only had half the body in it. so when i drew the rest of it, it ended up being huge.
