Traditional Work

v1:


v2:

 

Prefer version 1, version 2's slightly too washed out (even though I used to have that taste myself), though that's not really an issue.

+ flow obviously
+ placement and such
+ the start on the colour scheme
- slight monotony, more pink/magenta or whatever secondary colour is needed within the elements, not just with quert lines
- shape of canvas is odd, square tags can be effective but the fact you can only see her head/shoulder/beginning of other arm means that she's slightly cropped out, and it comes out with floating head syndrome
- too sharp in some areas, especially 1px lines (be careful with sharpening 1px lines, instead of making the equivalent of 2px lines with contrast, it just pixelates them)
- not sure if it's the fractals, textures, technique or whatever but it seems really patchy and gritty in terms of quality - for something like this smoothness would have probably worked better

I like though

 

It was client work so I didn't choose the size. You know me I am pretty standard on the 400x175. Thanks I really appreciate the crit.
