Classic Sophistication

My goal was to kind of edit the original picture to end with more "golden" hues, making it less bright or lower in contrast and just very sophisticated.

My comeback vexel for 2006 =) I wanted to start off fresh, sorta new. I hated the realistic style I was going toward because it felt like a waste of my time, so I decided to go along the route of lineart. And I Love It. I wanted to do less shading and I did it. I'm still trying to find my happy medium though, so I think I'm getting there after this one.

I love her hair, her lips, her dress (except in some spots) and especially the background ^_^. Comments/criticism appreciated. <3

Ilaria 10 Feb 06 - 07.35am	Welcome back Annette! I really missed you! I could try to describe in detail all the things I like about this vexel, but I guess my comment would become an essay! It's just perfect in all of its aspects.

malgrax_girl 10 Feb 06 - 05.06am	WOW! Amazing! =D Love it. There's something about the eyes that bug me though ... perhaps the colour? Not white enough? Meh. It's still uber fab! =D Great work. Reply from Yeah it kinda bugs me on and off too.. I think when you look at it as a whole, you can see why it's not 100% white, but when you focus on it as that one part, it does look odd. Ehh I studied it too much LOL Thank you =D
grotesque 10 Feb 06 - 04.50am	Beautiful!
Champloo 10 Feb 06 - 04.44am	HOLY GOD DAMN! I HATE YOU CAUSE YOU HAVE TALENT! XD This is beautiful smexy is what it is.
Joe Law 10 Feb 06 - 04.38am	Wow, gorgeous. I'd pick out the parts I love most, but everything is very well done. I love this!
Linda 10 Feb 06 - 04.14am	Ahh! Long time no vexel! I think it's AMAZING! The line art is perfect.. like, I mean perfect. You totally pulled it off. I am not keen on lineart when the lines are really thick and obtrusive but your lines are: 1) not black, yay 2) not thick but still there 3) still varying widths to give the feeling of depth. The hair is so cute too. I could tell the legs were amazing just from the thumbnail O_o Reply from Ahh thank you! I was hoping the line art came out okay, so thank you =D
sae 10 Feb 06 - 03.30am	i can't find a flaw with it. gosh, i feel like giving up vexels because of you. haha, like, i feel really talentless. but chyeah, goodjob<3 it's fantabulous (:
Angie 10 Feb 06 - 02.38am	Looooove it! I loove Christina Milian! She's one of my favorite singers, and you did a wonderful job! This vexel doesn't have any bad parts to it, it's just lovely. I love everything! Did you do the bg from scratch?? It looks wonderful! <3<3<3 Reply from Thank you! And yes, I did do the background from scratch =D
Joaris333 10 Feb 06 - 02.06am	ahh annette you've done it again! i love your style so much. i wish my vectors could be like yours. =) Reply from Haha yeah right, you know your vexels are AMAZING. and beyond. Thank you though =D

Seven 10 Feb 06 - 01.30am	This is GORGEOUS Annette! I love her hair and the background. Dumb question: what font is "Christina Milan" written in? Reply from Thank you =D It's written in ExtraOrnamentalNo2 .. do a yahoo search and it should be pretty easy to find.
