actually this was done completely freehand in photoshop. I know there's more of a painterly bent to this board but somebody might like this.

mmmmmmmmmmmm..........she tastes like strawberry?

anyways i love vector art and this is an ok example. its a tad too simple but what really bothers me is that contrast level isnt high enough.

her skin tone is very light compared to her outfit and the light pink background...

or is it just my monitor?.... maybe i should look into that..lol

heh, thanx guys.. actually the point of the picture was emphasis on the shapes rather than on the details. I wanted to give a sort of less-is-more look to it.
The low contrast was intentional for this reason. I wanted the soft sexy look.

anyone else?

I love seeing Shane's Drawing board influence here. It's cool to inject more variety here.

Nice picture, I like this poster-look. But I think you should draw the line of the chin because now it looks as if she doesn't have one. Apart from this� sexy!

I hope somebody understands my english

Yes, very Shane Glines... especially with the ice cream reference.

Nice work Awe, style works well for you and has your own little flair to it

Now you have to go a step further and make a p0rn picture the "illustrator-ly style" with a little catch phrase like "I love condoms that come with a strawberry flavour"

hmmm...
gotta think about that eh

looks very sleek and stylish, like one of those ads, and also its really good considering there're only 4 colours used there(face is great)

I love it! But I hate it for the fact that it makes me horny

Wow, Photoshop you said. It looks just like something done in Illustrator

. I like the way you colored the lips, eyes and icecream design on her dress. I looks like the areas were just masked out and colored using the background color (of course I'm assuming that you just colored over the flesh and dress using the same color as the BG, rather than actually cutting them out).

This is obviously from the ShaneGlines board...Did you see the one that Khary Randolf (Kaligula) did in Illustrator? That was another cool version.

Great stuff, do you use Illustrator at all in any of your other work?

Wow, thanx for all the comments guys. Im glad you all liked it.

Lunatique: heh... yep.

scylla:... strawberry rocks.

Brain: thanx. Im kinda trying to develop my hand steadyness in photoshop.. I work at insane resolutions so...

francmidi: I see what you mean, and maybe you're right... I just wanted to leave out as much detail as possible...

Jezebel: Actually the Icecream reference was totally unintentional... thanx.

Godwin: thanx.

gLitterbug: you pimp pervert you...

Frank9z: thanx.

Jaguar Wong: Yep 100% freehand photoshop. Well I sorta drew them and cut them out.... kinda hard to explain. My fav from shanes board was musahi's supergirl version... Im still droolin'

(sorry to bump this again.. but I was outta town for the last few days.)
