I really like her nicely rendered face, but her panties seem a little flat to me.
especially on the sunlit part on the left

Nice composition

I agree with zombie, her panites are a little flat, and um her breast look way to low on her chest. All in all great job!

composition is horrible.
her hands are cut off, and looks really unnatural, as if the only reason her arms are that way because you don't want to paint her hands. which makes it seems lazy.

unless the ocean is tilting, water should wrap around her legs evenly. also, no ripple for the second leg.

take a second look at her right eyebrow, oh and... her breast...is sagging all the way to her abdomens.

Coll piece

Wonderful!!! Amazing work Jordan!!!!

hmmm first impressions.. the head looks like it was done all by it self and then pasted on her body..
I think you need more adjustments to connect her to match her body
I also think her bottom undie part looks like its part of her skin..

I think it's sexy...

But I agree about the head and the neck looks weird too.
Her breast it's so much at the bottom too I think.

kittyKat nailed it. You just need to keep pushing and working with anatomy studies. Pay close attention to arms and the way the neck moves. Search out Loomis books! Thanks for sharing.

I will rework it, thank you all.
kitty: thanks, you are right
jerrembear: No, the reason her hands are cut off is because it was supposed to be just a portrait but I decided at the last minute to make a full body.

Keep rockin!

Hey Jordan, this is a good piece. Dont be discouraged by jarrembear. they don't really know what they're talking about. The arms look pretty much ok to me, I can see that yes the composition isn't of a professional but you are still young like me, and the face shows you have talent. Just keep practicing man. Oh and you should look up some stuff on clothing, her panties definately look flat.

Thanks Xenorify! I agree about the clothing, but I can't digure out how to make it appear less flat..

thanks xenorify!!

her head is pratically at 180 degrees around, follow her spine up to the back of the head, ouch!

the reason its so flat is because its too sharp around her for one thing, and it looks like you put a drop shadow on it...
on top of that her butt isn't at the right angle, it looks like its at two different point of view.

yeah,.. I guess you are right jerrembear. thanks for the sketch.

Hey jordan ^^ Was there a WIP for this? Damn, I missed it! lol
Despite a few anatomy issues with the breast and bum, I think overall this is a nice piece.
Your paintings are always very crisp with can be bad or good, but it's basically your trademark. I'd suggest to practice making your paintings a little less smooth and crisp, just for experimentation purposes.
You need a female model at your disposal for these kinds of paintings ;P
I think you should work on fixing up that breast. Take it almost completely out of the picture, because right now it's looking like a 90 year old woman with a nice bod ;P haha, sorry >.>
^_^

Oh, And I think Jerrem should take some time to read over his comments before he posts them. -_- Whether a piece needs improvements or not, I don't think anyone deserves a comment FILLED with negatives and NO positive. Geez.

thank you Angi! yep, I totally agree
There was no wip for it, unusual isn't it

Sorry for coming late as I've been too busy these days and can't check out GFX so frequently.
This is a good artwork, but not great (perhaps cuz it's too simple). Her breasts should be risen a little. The eye shape should be more curving (this one is just a bit boring). I agree with Xenorify about the panties, you should make it look more "bevelled" from her skin.
If you have spent looking for references for the girl, so do the same with water. Some closed-up water photos may make you draw better.

Keep up good work (thummbup).

Ok you know it's not your best work by yourself. But who cares, every artist creates a piece once in a while that isn't his or her usual standart i think, especially when trying out new things.. looking at the rest of your gallery you're very talented and always put a lot of effort in your works...just my first thoughts

But what am i saying, this pice does show you've got the talent and the skills as well, like Xenorify said, the face is very good!

What i can see is, you could add some more color variations in many parts of the picutre. also, her body is too smooth.

sorry if these points were already mentioned, i didn't read all the comments.

Keep painting jordan, you know you're good, and you're gonna get even better

Hey Jordan, It is very unusual not to see a WIP on a piece! Not bad but there are some anatomical issues. I think it is fine that you do not draw the hands. The emphasis is on her face and her back anyway. I agree that the head appears to be disjointed from the rest of her body though the rendering was done very well. As for her bottom, the angle doesn't bother me. I think it looks odd because of the back. The hips are in the right position but the back seems too forward and should be angled more. Her left shoulder should be closer and her right shoulder should be further away. The spine of her back should be more towards the right. This would also match the position of her head provided you blend it more with her neck. I think the reason why her undergarment looks flat is because there is no thickness to it. Clothing however thin they are have some type of thickness to it. Also at the seams of the suit there is usually some type of elastic which should create a dip in the skin. It would give your painting a bit more realism. Her nose and mouth looks very good though there is something about her eyes that seem a bit strange. I am not sure what it is...Too round? Anyway very nice job. I look forward to seeing more of your work!

Lia and Kristy, thank you both. I agree with all you two said.
I painted this piece during the time I was kinda depressed about art. and I really rushed it. I don't like this painting very much, in fact, now that I look at it, I don't like it at all.

J'la trouve pas mal bien réussie .....beaux yeux bleus.....beau tatoo....(*comme s'il ne regardait pas ailleurs loll*) mrddd !
