Well..here's my entry for the comptetition :) (my first comp! yay!)

At first I really hated this photo but the more I worked on it, the more I loved it. For the first time I used gradients (and it's probably noticable) The whole "redness" of this vexel was inspired from Echo's Just to Dream vexel, though the only thing red in that is the lips. :p It was still my inspiration...yup. Echo you rock! :)

k..I think thats it...

Semi bigger version :)

edit: lowered the opacity on hands and forehead :) If it's still too bright let me know. Thanks everyone!

The red theme you have going here really suits the vexel. My favourite parts has to be the eyes; love the lashes.

hehe..thanks! :p The eyes are what irritated me the most (full frontal is hard, especially to make them look the same), so I'm glad they came out good :) Thanks so much!

It looks really good... the only thing is the INCREDIBLY white parts on the from of her hands. If you deleted those two layers, it would be a million times better. Just a suggestion. ^^

Edit: Holy crap.. it looks awesome now! Yayy! You better win. ^^

The details and shading is great! Just the same bit of advice though for the hands. Perhaps reduce the opacity of those two really bright layers? Otherwise, I really like the warm feel of this.

oh my angie! i love the eyes. There the best aspect of this vexel. On my screen, some of the hand shading stands out alot.. perhaps you can change the opacity unless you wanted it like that. Good luck :)


ahh good reason! lol. Some colors hurts my eyes as well... stupid flat scrns lol. Sorry if some of this doesnt make since, its b/c of that word fliter... its changing my words lol!!
Reply from
o_O I knew there was something I forgot to fix. lol. I lowered the contrast on my screen cause it was hurting my eyes and I couldn't see the white parts as much :x I'll fix it in a min.. Thank you! :D
