I like it. the top seems empty like it should have been lowered. Cool cna creepy. Im more of a dark shadows kinda guy like more dark detailed areas. but still i like it. the tattoo on her cheek doesnt seem right... maybe its just me. Its doesnt look like it goes with the shape of the face.

Nice colors and atmosphere. You may want to soften the skin and give it less shine because skin does then to absorb and reflect light within itself. Great piece.

Now this is the type of digital painting worth a good look, I do enjoy the noticeable paint strokes a lot! The details such as earrings and piercings are a nice touch, but what I apreciate the most are the well-thought variations of colour and the very well implement textures in the background. Very well done work

I really wish you would make the bottom half longer, it's so nice to look at. The girl on the right's ear might be a little too high up. Otherwise, great piece.

I like the way you did the girl on the right. +9

i liked a lot, the tecnique is traditional media based, very nice

lucuella  08/02/06 @797

Awesome! I found the brightness of the white eye a bit high. The hair of the woman of the right looks quite strange at the top. +7/8

perfect!

Very nicely done! I also enjoy the visible paint strokes. This has a very professional feel to it. I only think the eye of the covered pale person is a little weak. It does not seem round like an eyeball due to the shading. I also have to say I disagree with the poster that said things should be moved up. I like the composition very much. +9

beautiful! her face is particularly striking. so what does the title mean, sounds familiar..

ElChief  08/03/06 @314

thx a lot folks, and i'm glad you like it. just to explain the rough style: i switched back to painter recently to develop a more painterly style, and this is the first piece where i really concentrated on brushstrokes and looseness etc. Hope i can do all my next paintings in this way . mea culpa is latin and means my guilt. thx P.S.: worked on her hair a bit.

There is a little problem in the composition, but that doesn't change my attitude to the image. Great technique and a lovely play with colors. Awesome work, dude!!! Cheers

Very nice work. Did you use a refference for the girl?

ElChief  08/07/06 @414

thx guys @Valera yes i had reference, but i changed it as needed, as always

pegahoul  08/08/06 @446

Wonderful! I don't really enjoy the paint stroke on the face (prefer smooth ones) but what the heck... Great painting!

Gods-Mistake  08/08/06 @651

Sehr geiles Bild! Vor allem die Details in dem Kreisobjekt im Hintergrund gefallen mir. Ein bisschen mehr Arbeit an den Haaren wäre gut gewesen. Sie sehen etwas zu clean aus. Wäre schön die Fotoreferenz zu sehen, wenn es eine gibt. Weiter so!

my fav of your paintings! die art und weise wie du die haut koloriert hast ist wahnsinn. (konzept erinnert mich n bissel an royo) sehr cool sind auch die texturen im hintergrund. nix zu meckern, einfach geil.

ElChief  08/10/06 @374

thx again folks. i re-worked some parts. @lolita royo färbt ab, ist auch einer meiner faves...eigentlich der einzige. thx.

KPet  08/10/06 @876

I saw this over at conceptart first. I really like the texture of the skin and the bright highlights. Great skin tone variations too.

JESR  08/13/06 @048
