yy10 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I thought you finished the lily?! Quote deviantART sigs n stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemo Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 Ok as per request i had some spare time so thought i would do a small, and prety :AntiAliasingOff: lilly as i didnt really feather it well and suck at leaves majorly :oops:. But uhm..i hope you guys like it? i think overall its prety nice but thats up to you to decide! The pollen part in the center turned out well i think though, best part imo but i always find that bit quite easy :? Oh..and the bottom petal was a complete blooper, it was originally meant to make it look as though the leaf was curving up slightly as they do but yeh...i kind of messed it up :?

nemo Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 @yy you were ahead of my own post! & i think i am going to have to edit that picture to make it better...it looks like it has a bit of potential (even though i say so myself :o -- for starters it feels like its missing something on the bottom [leaves most likely!!]) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yy10 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 very realistic nemo! I never thoguht someone could do such a realistic piece. so much better than mine. Quote deviantART sigs n stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemo Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 i really like yours and envy how you can do leaves, mine just look like i green shapes pointlessly sitting there when i try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boude Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 nemo, I think that if you'd stick around and practice you would be one of the best members of this forums.

yy10 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 yes, i think a lily with no leaves is better. it's super realistic. i wouldn't be able to do that in a thousand years. Quote deviantART sigs n stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemo Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 @Boude: wow :shock: thanks a million !! I really admire EVERYONE on these forums, new and old as i think everyone has skill in their own right. I just think i need more patients with my pieces because i get near the end then just want to zoom onto something else hehe. And to think i could be concidered as one of the best then gawsh makes me blush :oops: ! @yy: You soo could! your realistic pieces are really good but if you just practice on a bit of detail im sure you can do them too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemo Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 comment about lily: maybe you should do a shadow behind it? Ill put a shadow and see what happens, hopefully it should sort out the poor feathering a bit hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boude Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Maybe you should add a background to your lilly (or your rose), make it not very realistic, the problem with your images is that it looks real, and because of that ordinary, we're all familiar with real, so it loses some of its "power".

nemo Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 @Boude: my original rose had a black gradiant background but people said they prefered it like this o.o but ill pop up the original with gradiant when i find it on my pc onto page one in the hidden part, see what you think? @yy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yy10 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 question: when you made the lily did you plan it uot first? just curious Quote deviantART sigs n stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemo Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 Yup i sketched it on some paper then drew it on pdn (i ALWAYS use this method) as if i tend to go straight to pdn it nearly always turns out dodgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yy10 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 rly? you sketch it? well, i dont. i jsut picture it in my head, then use th eline tool to draw it then colour. Quote deviantART sigs n stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
