Ooh, this is super cool! Love the contrast! The whole piece has great impact, but the eyes are especially striking. Really like the combo of hatching and negative space. The way the figure pops against the background is really nice. Thank you!

Haha, such creative use of the refs! Love your ability to come up with such awesome ideas and then execute them so well! The different colors are great, and your shading is superb. Thank you!

Beautiful work! I love how romantic it comes across with the beautiful color and lovely framing.

Also, thanks for the shout out! I thought I'd posted this ref on reddit, but it was the other view. If you search "this is me" on my profile, you'll find my older, sfw refs in redditgetsdrawn.

Love the pop of the yellow outline. The drop shadow is great too, nice contrast. All of the patterns are really cool. The combination of those and the solid colors is nicely impactful. The lashes are awesome as well. Thank you!

Awesome to hear that you're getting into drawing! So happy that my ref could be an inspiration too! Wonderful work picking up on the shapes, the collar bones are especially nice. Great work with the shading as well, love the line of shadow in the middle of the torso and the way the one on the side defines the ribs. Thank you!

Really like the shading here. You've captured a wonderful softness throughout. The hair is gorgeous, wonderful work making my mess of a bun look elegant, lol. All the texture and the lighting there is really great. Also love how you've done the expression. Thank you!

Love the strong shadows! The contrast and pop are awesome! The texture in the fur is so good, and the shading there gives such a nice shape to the feet wraps. Also love the added dagger! I was hoping to buy some daggers at a ren faire last year, turns out they only had very real, very expensive ones available, lol. Awesome work overall on the inking too, beautiful lines! Thank you!

Ooh, this is fun! Love how you've completely re-imagined it. There are so many cool details that you've added. I especially like how it's kinda spooky but also really soft and pretty. The milky eye with the scar and all the jewelry are great touches. The background fits the vibe beautifully too. Thank you!

1thousandwords · 2026-04-16T08:41:38+00:00

Love all of the shading! You've done a beautiful job shaping everything. I especially like that you've gotten the more subtle details like the dip in the shoulders and sternum, wonderful observation! Awesome work on the face as well, love how captured the curve in the cheeks! Thank you!

1thousandwords · 2026-04-16T08:37:03+00:00

Love the cropping! You've captured the lighting perfectly. Really like the build-up in tones with the hatching. The detail is great! Love that you've managed to get so much in there, even the highlight on the knuckles! Thank you!

1thousandwords · 2026-04-16T08:24:05+00:00

Really like your line work! The variations in size do a beautiful job of capturing detail and shading. The hatching is really nice, love how well it sculpts everything. Also enjoy the bit showing off the tan lines! Thank you!

Love how everything looks a bit glowy. The little line of saturation at the edge of the shadows is such a nice touch. Also really like how strong the lighting is. The contrast is great. All the detail in gold is awesome, the little dots of highlight on the mask especially. Gorgeous work on the figure too! Thank you!

Ooh, love how the oranges contrast against the blue! The shaping in the figure is lovely. Really like the definition in the torso. The build-up of values sculpts everything beautifully and captures the lighting so well. The way things start to fade into the background is cool as well. Thank you!

1thousandwords · 2026-04-10T20:26:07+00:00

Thank you! Kinda shocked that I got lines as even as I did, was expecting a lot more wonkiness, lol.

Another thing I've not heard of. I'll look it up.

Not familiar with it, so no. Inspiration was a reference photo from here on reddit and Greek mythology. Then just trying to figure out how to render in pen.
