hauntingly beautiful!

+10

Something odd about her right arm (I think perhaps where her head goes behind it, or how high up her shoulder goes... or her hair *blinks*), but man, the lighting on this is superb... gorg colours like always

pretty.

This is gorgeous! Beautiful lighting and wonderful pose. There may be something weird happening with her abdomen (maybe too bright of a highlight in the area right under her ribs) which makes it look like it sticks out further than her "abs"... Love those ribbons though :9!

Awesome colours and mood.

There are some slight anatomical issues
which could be improved.

The midsection (as mentioned) is a bit too twisted
and too angled.
Her right shoulder seems a bit off.

I love the positioning of the legs

The clouds on the right upper corner are
too clearly brushstroked would like to see it a bit
softer.

The lighting is mindblowing + 9

AMAZING!!!

very very nice

gorgeous... amazing colors! they set the mood perfectly...

Amazing, just amazing. +10 well earned.

Awesome Work!!!

Very beautiful. The abdomen has already been mentioned, plus something about those wings... They just look like arrays of feathers? I'm no wing expert, but it seems odd how the feathers are so identical to each other and all pointing in the same direction.

Very very nice otherwise, though.

Beautiful work Gary!
i love it.
excellent composition, nice colors, nice detail
+10

woow very nice colours, and character design i like her position, and the backgroud sky colour too. +10/10

Just gorgeous¡¡¡¡¡¡ +10

Wow! Great work man! Nice pose and I really like rays of sunlight
Jst 1 small crit...I think her right hand is smaller than her left. not sure though..

This is fabulous, the lighting itself is a masterwork =)

One hting I don't like is the stomach, the upper musclesof the right side being, in my opinion, too exposed. Other than that, I love the whole piece And damn, the way you painter her feet...!!

great antifan

very dynamic. nice work!

tet

Overall I love it, although I'm not keen on the unfinished clouds

lol@ baronimpossible:

Nice scoring display

To Gary: looking really forward to your next artwork

This is simply gourgeous like all of your art.
I love the composition of this picture and I congratulate you for making such an hard pose like that. I love how you were able to make the movement sensation and reallu give the sensation that she's dancing and really concentrated in that dance. The paiting is gourgeous! I really like the "unifnished" look of some parts of the picture in contrast to other that seam to be so detailed, except for the clouds in the upper part And like people already mentioned something in her abdomen doesn't look right, imo is something about that purple lightning in her skin. I specially like the wings and the colours you've putted in them and the feet and her hands. The sun rays in the clouds are very nice too and give a magnificent touch to this picture!
9/9

OH MY GOD !!!
Wonderful ! +10

Cool, great colors and lighting.
Her lower right arm is a bit weird, too short I think and too blunt. Espescially the hand is too small.

Only me and Cypherx noticed! We must be meant for eachother.....

Theres a few sections in this that bother me in terms of harsh lighting / angles : including the right hand side of her midsection and her right forearm.

But with that out of the way i was blown away by the work
The colours are absolutely beautiful, and on a whole, the lighting is stunning. You should be really proud of this work Gary, it's very beautiful

Yes very good work but the wings could be bigger and less stiff...although they are very nicely detailed!

looks like you gave up on the clouds at the top right and seems some lighting issues in the stomach... but I'm very glad to see a figure work from you. I love your backgrounds. I find I'm not bad at characters but stink at backgrounds. I should really try to branch out .. you've inspired me Great work

Beautiful work, very diferent from your other works... Change is good lol

good stuff.
10/10.

Thank you for the comments everybody - Indeed, there are a few little anomalies with the anatomy, but I quite like it not quite right-and-perfect. I fixed the clouds a bit though, they were bothering me!

G x

Love the colors, her pose is kinda tipsy tho.. hehe. Nice going!

Much of what needs work has already been stated, but maybe in stating it another way, it can be seen from a different perspective.

Her right shoulder looks off, to me, because it seems positioned a bit too high, and is perhaps slightly too large.. Other than that, I love the expression on her face, and the way that the light plays off of her muscular structure.. This is simply beautiful, and it's really inspired me.

I hope to be able to draw something as wonderful someday.

+6/7

The critique is already mentioned - so I only need to tell you, how wonderful it is - esp. her face! And I like the ribbons

Really a great Artwork, I love the mood you've created with it!
Even the clouds are fantastic! Thumbs up!

hard pose you chose....but you pulled it out great
the lighting is great

+8/8

plus : ribbons, lights, atmosphere, hairs, feathers

minus : composition and anatomy of body

The colours and the ribbons look great; excellent colouring and lighting! There is also a lot of atmosphere here. But the body could have been better, as I think the anatomy is a little lacking. Something seems odd with her right wrist, and the stomach muscles are a little weird.
Not bad though.

Simply beautiful, amazing!!!

Nice colors, goofy pose.

LOL - I love the awkward pose - that's why I chose the photo on DA as reference

G x

This pose is really interensting.. and telling story, but problem isnt pose, but anatomy ..

Your picture is so strange(interestig, exciting, make me angry, thinking why strormbringer is angel and what that pose mean).. I must viewing again .. and no reason yet ..

Great work. My only critique would be to again second comments about the right arm and side.

oh my god!, words cannot describe how good this is..amazing!!!, I would love to know how you did this, from start to finish, how it was put together etc.

awsom


i have never seen such a good study, especially her body, it reminds me some old romatic or barok paintings, in their style and their lines

you did a good job man,

if you want to visit me for a coffey in germany, call me

wow!!

it's so cool I don't even know what to say.

AWESOME!!! top marks

that is superb work Gary. I been looking at your VA site for years, and am simply amazed at your work. I also saw your segment in 2d artist magazine (correct me if i am wrong )

SEXY!!! Yet tastefull.

Amazing! The detail in the wings is spectacular. In spite of some minor anotomical anomolies, this gets an easy 10 from me!

Comin' out of nowhere
Drivin' like rain
Stormbringer dance
On the thunder again
Dark cloud gathering
Breaking the day
No point running
'Cause it's coming your way
Ride the rainbow
Crack the sky
Stormbringer coming
Time to die
(from Deep Purple's Stormbringer (1974)...)

Great work +8

So beautiful composition... Good work!

OMG!

Amazing!!!

humm... not quite as fantastic as your other works, but I still think it's a remarkable job. *gives you a big hearty slap on the back*. Unless you don't like that, and you'd prefer imaginary money. =)
