Wow. It's amazing how your poses seem so natural. :#1:

Thank you.
A co-worker was gracious enough to pose for Polaroids, since I was unsure of exactly how to render the girl curtsying. Yes, fortunately, the co-worker was female. lol
The trick to a fun illustration is the delicate balance between fantasy and realism. You can tip things one way or the other to get your point across. But I feel that if you go too far in one direction, you can either get too abstract, or too realistic. Too abstract, and you risk confounding and alienating the viewer... Too realistic, and you may impressively deceive your viewer, but beyond the achievement itself, you sacrifice imagination.

I can't say anything to that from an expert's pov, but I'll agree and state in turn that it doesn't have the same "feel" to it.

Kayley's eyes are kinda...scaring me...but its a great composition. :) I think its the lack of colour around the pupils...

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere?
