[pixel cheetah]

Wow, and double wow. Bloody amazing work, your husband's portrait with the skin textures, that fake traditional girl portrait, the mantis girl; all of them amazing!

[Guan]

my sketch

[The_Flying_Dutchman]

Great range of work you've got here, dig the oil painting at the top of this page.

Keep posting!

[Lav]

great updates, your paints look very scary

[Malakuko]

that girl portrait is fantastic! Shes leaning out of the picture, I dont normally approve of black magic used in painting but for this I make an exception. Awesome work.
For that last post it could be cool to drop the bottom half on the insect girl in blueish half light and accent it with edge lighting. Anything to bring focus to her boobs! haha. Is that what I think it is between her second set of arms??

[kiwigarbage]

I am quite a fan of your eye style. Pretty delicious! I'm not sure I agree with some of your color choices though...Something's not quite there for me in the palette, at least in the recent one. I like it though!

[NickyBeats]

holy shit!!!!! wowsas this shit is crazy good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sidharth Chaturvedi]

Looking great as always! Cant wait to see killer queen when it's done !

[ryan mcshane]

WOAH DUDE.

thanks for the process, it's cool how you sketch, color test, comp, then lines and then paint, purrrrdy dope bro!
love your stuff, can't wait to see more!

[Iridyse]

OmertA: Thank you!

ankitm: Hahha, thanks. That Mona Lisa was just a manip because I was bored. Hope you find the brushes useful.

pixel cheetah: Thank you so much

Guan: Thanks!

The_Flying_Dutchman: Fake oils are less messy Thank you!

Lav: Haha thanks! I was kinda aiming for that.

Malakuko: Thank you! I was thinking about some kind of bounce lighting too, will see how that goes. As for the thing between the legs, it is actually supposed to be a decorative flap thingy, sort of something you find in belly dancing costumes. I need to make it look less weird

kiwigarbage: Thank you! I agree, it needs a lot of fixing. I'm on it though

NickyBeats: Thanks!

Sidharth Chaturvedi: Thanks a lot! Need to finish it off before I get tired of it.

conte: Thanks!

hücumkedi: That's very kind of you, thanks!!

P D: Thank you! I'll do a fake-trad painting with colors next I think.

ryanoir: Thank you!! All that planning is half-assed though, I keep changing the elements so much.


Here's a quick update on the head. I hatehatehated the last one. I want to punch myself in the face for putting out crap like that. Much happier with this one. Still very much a WIP.

[ryan mcshane]

did you use much ref for that? its so damn cool ._.
i like the cheeks and the nose
keep at it man

[Iridyse]

ryanoir: Thanks! I'm ..umm..a girl though
I'm looking at images of mantises, cobra lilies, mushrooms and such. Random but they help.

quick update, I kept the linework in white so it is easier to see:

[thirdeye]

Oh damn! I love colors on that last one soo much!

[TinyBird]

A gorgeous bug lady! Can't wait to see how the body colours will look (hopefully it has more "red dots on black", that part looks interesting).

[ryan mcshane]

ohh i call every body man haha D:
looking siiiiick dude! your lines are brilliant *_*

[Velocity Kendall]

Amazing beautiful work. thread bookmarked

[TomBaker]

Awesome work.

[Fetsch]

realy great, the wip is turning out to be aaaawesome, love the changes you did to the face, i liked it before but now its even better and fits the design more i think. Cant wait to see it further developed!

[polydrawer]

aha found the full resolution picture of the last one! (saw the profile picture on facebook ^^)

still loving your work, keep on inspiring us all!

[Justas]

Awww, you make Ugly look Pretty actually

[Iridyse]

thirdeye: Thank you! Still trying to figure out the background colors.

TinyBird: Thanks! Will definitely add that, and more spots on her head too.

ryanoir: Hahah ok, I wasn't sure Thanks!

Velocity Kendall: Thank you!

TomBaker: Thanks!

Fetsch: Thank you! I try hard to not dwell on the face for a long time in the initial stages but till I get it the way I want I can't seem to go ahead. I think there might be more changes coming up, haha.

polydrawer: Yea! I was tired of looking at my face in FB A friend said this was a pretty accurate self portrait

Justas: Thank you! That's so nice

Here's a quick update for today.

Hi Iridyse! I want to thank you for hepling me out understanding SSS on my Snail-dragon in the critique section. Sorry for not replying sooner. When I saw what you have done with it, it blew my mind. I just got to be able to do that one day, so thanks!

I really love your sketchbook, took me a while to go through the pages, I remember so well when you first started it, I was too intimidated to comment.

The last one looks amazing! May I ask, was the pistol-shrimp part of your motivation for the arthropod-centaur? I think I recognize the colors and those scales on the side.

[p sage]

Dude! This one! Wow. Alice & the Hooka-pillar.

And broseph! That one! Sebastian Krueger an influence? Cuz it's damn fine in his way.

Man, you got some killer stuff here, hermano. And yes I'm aware you're female, it's just striking me funny to respond as if you were a bro because so many people in your thread have done it
