Finally finished this one. I'm not happy with the shadow. But I like the image overall. Let me know what you all think. Thanks!

It looks a bit more like tundra than desert. I like the girl's dress though, you accomplished the folds well

I know this might not be the best painting, but I'd love to get some comments and suggestions about it from you guys. It's messed up that [666]Flat will post ricidulous cartoons and he gets all kinds of replies.

I like the colour. her red skirt is very striking in the b/w surroundings. The yellow satellite of the moon could be desaturated a bit, if it wasn't mean to have some significance.

From the woman's height, I gather she is meant to be seen from a higher angle, like 45 degrees above? if that's the case, I think the foreshortening isn't turning out well. her upper torso and hips still doesn't look right for that angle, might use wire-frame boxes as guides to get the main form of her body right.

The moon is directly in front of her. try cast the shadow in accordance to that.

Yeah it's sad how we try and ask for critique and only get 3 replies, and then the post they say that aren't worth their time alawys get the most replies.

I think your desert looks flat. I'm not sure, but I think if it was night time there would be way more shadows on the ground. Even if your picture was set in day time it would still look flat. I think it be neat if there was a little bit more dust passing by her in the middle of the picture. Still good painting keep it up.
