Looks really cool!

The only tips I could give you would be to 1. get rid of the lighting effect in the background and
2. don't shade with black but with darker color of the same hue..
well I'm no expert however.. you might just try it and see if its any better.

Hey newt I like it

I don't have such a problem with the lighting effect but maybe don't use white as your highlights in this siuation. there doesn't seem to be a strong light source, your shaddows are pretty soft. which is good but I would maybe drop the white highlights. just use a lighter colour of your skin tone. Some of the lines are not working either, the rib cage in particular. the shading isn't working with them. they look like lines. This is not necessarily a bad thing but you seem to be dancing between a comic book style where the lines are highly vsible and a very shaded look where the lines are hidden. If you want this then fine but make sure that you are in control of what you're doing, and what effect you're getting.

I dig those spider legs. creepy...

I think that you should remove the black line over the right breast to remove the "stuck on" look....

Otherwise, very nice work!

Sorry for posting twice - this is my first Wacom piece (just started using it two days ago), and I need some help.
The sketch is good, but the coloring isn't quite what I want, and I'm not sure what's wrong with it.

Oh - and I apologise for the nudity if that's a problem. I don't think it's explicit or anything.



Thanks!

The linework does not look like it was done with a tablet...did you use pencil/pen for that part?

Man! That pic gives me chills just looking at it.

Thanks everyone - I agree on all accounts. I'm fixing it as I type. Good call on the white highlights - it looks way better, I guess skin dosen't ever get that shiny.
Breast line removed too - thanks.

Scoop - the linework is pencil, lots of tedious pencil work scanned in.

Thanks again!

80% of the viewers agree. Spider chicks are creepy. I've been drawing stuff like this for so long it fails to phase me.

I wouldn't date her though.
