[ExiledRed]

Oh my,

I left her nudity as safe for work as I could stand.

I'm trying not to use black at all. I think it is helping.

[thesaint]

What do you mean by no nudity? T-T A faerie should be naked...

[c4l3b]

Is mine pg-13 enough? should I image link it?

[heLiOS di PiERO]

it was so hard to stop on this one... but here it is, 3 hrs PS, comments very welcome =)

[Oofnish]

Caleb -- Not sure if that looks like a fairy to me, but I can almost hear a screech as it pops out, I like it Love the frog too!

Helios-- I like the energy colors you've got there, nice contrast! good pose too, although I think she might be falling forward a bit

Here's mine. almost didn't remember to cover the fairy boobs with goop --- hopefully this meets the nudity restriction!

This here topic has the potential to be very, very awesome. I've covertly been working on it for months and now I have a good reason to actually put pencil to paper and work on it.

[c4l3b]

There you go, added an ear, wings, and fixed the nose shadow so it didn't look like she's screaming. Look a little more traditional now?

[Oofnish]

more readable as a fairy now Caleb, although I don't think that there was any real need to do so -- I think its perfectly valid to interpret 'fairy' as you wish!
I kinda liked the screaming expression she had before, but the new one is good too -- more of a curious, awakening look which fits.

psycho -- nice use of the leaves for scale and atmosphere

Jiva-- interesting figure -- what is that light coming out of her forehead?

[c4l3b]

either way, she's food.

[erniesthings]

Trying to get back to doing this more regularly. Maybe eventually get better at painting.

An hour or so in PS

[Hamsta]

[scumworks]

[EBrown]

Congratulations...its a fairy

[Heckedy Peg]

Ok, my fairy's wings haven't popped out of the chrysalis yet. They would be all shriveled and wet. She's having some trouble getting out anyway....

[armando]

Here be mine

[Tizuma]

[Eurayo]

Here's mine. Kinda blah, though. The figure needs more movement. Right now it looks like she's about to scratch her butt and find a place to pee. But I think the best part of working on this was when that owl appeared in that dark smudge. I think I could make something out of this.

Good idea for a sketch challenge, by the way.

Why do I keep doing that glowing hole in the clouds thing?

[benkashmir]

trying a new technique combining a fast zbrush sculpt and then overpainting it.

not sure if its answer the no nudity rule, if it doesnt, let me know, i'll erase it.



edit - i first did the version below, what do you think, which one is better?

[Dorkthrone]

I am really loving some of the entries here.

Eurayo: Very nice jorb. I like the contrast between the chrysalis and the sky.

benkashmir: Your entry is mindblowing. I'm afraid to post mine once I finish it now, thanks to you. As if Grand Theft Auto IV wasn't enough to prevent me from ever finishing this.

[musok]

Well i bought yesterday my wacom so... i've done no color and no lineart, just sketch... i need bad critiques to improve

[ashton]

like a bee hive

[Leprechaun]

Well I'm feeling better about this one than past attempts
I worked on one for about 45 mins, didnt like it and tried again, and I liked this one much better

[Kolpar]

this one is taking forever painting women is not easy. Probably will finish it up some time.

[PowerAnimal]

Took about 2hrs... Still not happy with it but, I've got other work to do Hehe.



Mitze- Amazing, I love the pose and colors. Any references? or all just from your head? Anyway KUDOS

Leprechaun- Good color scheme. I'm kind of lost in the cacoon area though, I can't really put it all together, but good work none the less.

benkashmir- nice composition and creative cacoon, I like! I think the anatomy is a bit to thick in some parts but overall the shading is awsome.

Eurayo- creepy! reminds me of brom maybe?

armando- I think yours is my favorite so far, very funny take on the subject.

Heckedy Peg- Gross! but cool...

EBrown- Very good greyscale, I think the wings are my favorite part

heLiOS di PiERO- Great pose, nice dynamic lighting , I think it'd be cool if you worked with that blue pool more, and added more highlights over the model.
