I posted another image using the same program some time ago (which I made on the computer) and I think I have improved so enjoy!

A hero isn’t defined by winning. Loads of heroes die in the effort. Most of them never get any recognition. No, a hero is just somebody who does the right thing when it would be far, far easier to do nothing.
Wow this is really cool. It's very abstract. I really like the real-osity of it. It's like a book by Lauren Child, where she gets real objects and puts them in the pictures. Like Charlie and Lola if you've ever read any of those? Anyway it's very creative. Well done Smashles

Hello there, SweetMoments! I hope your first day of the new year is going swell.
Alright! Since I reviewed the first image you posted using that program, I figured I might as well go ahead and review the second image you made with it to try and see if you made any improvements artistically! I like the whole idea of an abandoned bride, so I was excited to see how you pulled all the sadness/emotions off through your art.
First of all, I love how you did the trees. They completely stand out and just pop so wonderfully it makes me want to squeal in happiness. Even the texture of the tree trunks is good, and more realistic than I was expecting. I was thinking, oh, when I look closer, the barks just going to be flat and brown, but all that texture was just divine!
Now, one of the issues I noticed with the artwork is the girl's hair. How you do the hair has improved since the previous piece, that's for sure. However, the hair still isn't spot-on and totally realistic. Some of the strands of hair don't look like they are even connected to her scalp, and, well...that's most definitely unrealistic. You need to keep working on the hair -- it needs to be connected to her scalp, or at least look like it.
Also the shape of her upper body (arms/neck/chest) seem very odd and incorrectly proportioned, like you just stuck a blob there, and two thin sticks to call arms. There is no definition of her shoulders, and no chest, either. Study a picture of brides in their dresses and then base your work off of that to make it more realistic.
Also, the shading on her dress is very odd, so decide which side of the picture your sun (light source) is going to be at and then shade accordingly to avoid an odd look. Overall, however, you did a good job and I definitely noticed some improvement in your work. I hope this helps you further improve, too!

I really like the atmosphere you've created, drawing everything in faily dark colors , and leaving the gown white as snow. That really puts emphasis on her. I really love how her eyes shine , and seem like they are just getting wet, I really like that little detail. Keep up the good work. *bows*

Great work mate... The background of the image feels very creepy to look at and the white flowers perfectly match with everything... The expression on the girls face is great... I love this picture....
Keep up the good work... PM me for anything...
Are you living for the things you are praying for?
Wow, these are really cool. The title caught my eye, and I thought they would have been pictures. But they weren't!!! There very abstract and very cool. I don't know why I like them so much. Awesome job!!!
I really like this. Its different. Makes me smile. Though I do know how hard it can be to add exact detail on the computer I think the face could have been used better to show her true feelings of hurt about being left. The grass and trees are really good by the way, I like the way its been done. Well done!
I don't becuase its not a favored style of mine. but moving past that there are things i do really enjoy. The sky for one, very moody and completes the picture, though i would have wished for some overlapping in the trees to give some dimension, but again that is becuase of a style thing.
I like the detail in the grass. amazing at that. But notice there are some seethrough spots. maybe putting down a grass colored base would solve that.
The bride looks ammateur and out of proportion, and the same with the arch.
The leaves i think would look great if they were spread out more, they are fall colors which would mean they are falling, not full in summer.
Aside from that after I judged and critiqued I came to like this more then i disliked (again that is more out of simple taste and preference then your skill)
You rock bebe
