Or is it you don't like sweet comments on you pics, ....well I'm going to do it anyway ..so there!
She is very pretty and you did her justice. The smile.. the lips.. those eye's ..they give me pleasant thoughts. Great job on her. :)

I love everything about this piece; the smooth shading, your awesome gradients... hell, even the nails are perfect. Except what really bugs me is the shape of the eyemakeup... I don't know how it's like in the original, but it's just so weird how the makeup goes in at the top outer corners. Also I think the makeup should be toned down a bit.
Buttt anyways I'm sure you had your reasons for making the mkaeup like that, and I do have to say this vexel is pretty amazing. The hair's greta and the bow+ribbion is a nice tocuh. rReminds me of 4th of July :D

Thank you! I don't know what the makeup was like in the original : P I've kind've taken to not paying attention to those things when adding makeup to vexels. It seems most people don't like it, but I definitely did it on purpose.
And I love that you mentioned the RWB of the ribbon (indirectly?). The picture was, to me, soooo America 1960's, apple-pie and baseball looking ; P I don't view that as a bad thing, I just wanted to hint at it a little bit and also give a nod to the Americans overseas without going, 'This is dedicated to all the men and women...' and making an over-the top message out of it. I don't mind if nobody sees it, it was in my intentions : )

Awwwe, I really like it. I love how the simple shading of the skin complements the detail on the lips and the eyes. Love love LOVE!

Wow, thank you -so- much. It just makes my day when someone sees what I was doing without me having to say it in the description : P

Ooohhh. This is really gorgeous.
One thing though.
The eye shadow/shadow around the eyes takes away from this.
It looks kinda weird to me..i dunno.
I looove the lips!
xo, Jojo

Nooo, It's cool!
I've just never seen that before. =)
I love it though.

Thanks : ) It's o.k. if it looks weird to you (I mean I'm not offended), I knew when I was doing it some people might not like it but it was done quite intentionally. I really wanted it to be like, 'O.k.! Here's the eyeshadow!' : P

nice!! but i'm not used to see the whole thing flipped over =P
Reply from
I'm amused by people noticing : ) The image is pretty symmetrical, the hair/bow are kind of the only giveaways and I kept forgetting when I was vexelling it which way it was -supposed- to be : P
Thank you, though.

It wasn't an easy picture... I spent a lot of time on it, worked really hard JUST to finish it : P It's worth it though because it feels good to conquer the task.
Thank you,by the way!

I didn't realize this was yours! I don't know why I didn't because now I look at it I can tell. I like the lips, the little creases on the lips, they look pretty. The fingers are also pretty magnificent :O
Reply from
I'm glad you didn't notice at first ; ) I think it's one of those rare times when I actually took the time to polish it off and make it look finished. It's probably the vexel I'm proudest of on technical merits. Go me!
Annnd thank you for moving it. I swore SO MANY TIMES I would never forget to submit to the competition page- but I didn't participate for so many rounds that I forgot there was a submission area : /

The lips is so shiny and sparkly! Mm.. I love the softness of the hands.
How come I didn't see it on the competition page though. :(
Reply from
I forgot to add it there ; ) I asked Linda if she can move it so I don't have to lose comments, I think she can and will so I just have to hold tight (I figure she's pretty busy right now with the party stuff).
Thanks, by the way!

Oohh i really love it, I continue envying how you work with the gradients, the teeth are perfect and the lips a delight, the eyes shine alone. The hands are a little of a color softly that the rest, this do them to stand out more and look very good.
Reply from
Ohh thank you for noticing the hands color! I wanted them to stand apart from the neck and face so I did change the color on them a bit. I feel so... happy that you noticed. I can't get over it ; )

I really like it, Echo. Especially the ribbon for some reason. The lips are so shiny and nice! The eye area is probably my favourite part. Oh and the hands, they really illustrate your style. lol. I mean, I saw the hands andI knew it was yours. This is a positive thing!
Very well done. :D
Reply from
I'm glad you like it. I like the ribbon, too! Simple as it is ; )
I didn't know I had a style, but lately the messages of, 'I knew this was yours!' are making me wonder what that style IS! : P I combined four styles in this one, doing each part in the style I felt I could do it the best in... I found it so hard since it's straight-on it's hard to 'hide' things, but in the end I'm happy. I guess maybe my style is that I do whatever it takes? : )

I love the colours you used. I love the hair thingy-
Aw, and the hands are gorgeous. You're getting SO much better, Echo!
I just think that the eye-part-shading is a little too dark. The transition could've been a little smoother.
I love the lips. - I agree with Angie - definitely one of the best lips!! Yaeyaeyae. Omg, and I love the eyes. They're so ... brown. I mean.. like.. realistic. Lovley. xD

Danke, Berit!
Thank you thank you thank you. This one was really hard- I deleted the skin at least five times. The eyes I also changed probaby as many- I even have a darker version of the eye makeup : ) I was a little concerned it would put people off but I liked it so I kept it (this one being the second darkest).
Also ; ) I was going to make them blue but then I decided everyone seems to make eyes blue when they want to change them so decided to make them brown and pretty anyway. Brown eyes are pretty too! ~shows mine off

I love this, Echo. Your work is getting extraordinarilly good! :) My favourite part are the teeth, lips and the bow. :)
And I love how you've flipped the photo, giving it a bit of difference.
Reply from
Thank you : ) I didn't do it on purpose or to be cool or anything... I flipped it because that's how I vexel eyes- I vexel the one on the right, flip the photo, vexel the one on the left and then flip it back... or not.

it looks amazing Echo! I just loved the expression on her face, it looks different. And I want her nails!
Reply from
I'm very surprised people like her nails. They're quite easily my least favorite part : P but then I did them so I know how poorly they're done *innocent-faced*
Heh : ) Thank you, though!

Reply from
Yes! You = My newest nemesis ~evil laughter... choking... soo echo!
Thank you so much : ) I'm just happy with it because I thought I couldn't do it. And you noticed the bow! Heh, I flipped the image- that's how I vexel : / I have to flip them to do the eyes each on the right side (eyebrows too, sometimes hair). Usually I flip it back but wondered if anyone would notice ; )

Thank you very much. The fingers were the last thing I did, and my computer was sooooo lagging by that time *cringes*.
