Lee

There are so insane amount of details and color in this one I love it!

Arch

thanks, I really like the ragged theme for this one =3

Lee

split cushion is a nice touch

thank you! It was probably one of the hardest images I did in the past months. Took me something like 30h or so, which is well above the usual ~20h the pin-ups take. But I think that once you commit with a scene that has a lot of detail, it's important to go all the way. So I took my time to make sure the boxes had a lot of detail, the chair and everything in the background as well. I actually took a lot more time in the background than in her. I believe she took something like 10h, and the 20h were on the background alone. Even small places like the stamp on the bottle have details. While I know it's not viable to take that much time on every single drawing, I think it's great that some of them have a more complex background going on. So I have to say I'm 100% satisfied with the result on this one!

Lee

thanks! I love working with those characters that might not have much to work with, but have a lot of possibilities =)

Lee

thank you, I'm glad you liked it!

Lee

thank you, I'm glad you liked it. I usually model some of the most complex scenes in 3d softwares with some simple cubes (or cylinders) to make sure the distance makes sense. it saves a lot of time in terms of manually measuring everything in the perspective, and it's guaranteed that it will make sense. This way I can spend more time doing what I do best: adding detail =)

Lee

thank you! I'm glad you liked them =D

Lee

reminds me of people on my guild talking about some animes where the protagonist died and returned as a bicycle seat or something like that lol

Lee

thank you!

Lee

don't worry, I'm glad you liked it lol =D

Lee

I have eagerly been awaiting this one. You did an excellent job, and nailed her personality!

Oh god, I love this one ! Good job dude

Oooooh damn, I love, love, love this one! I knew that it was going to be jam-packed full of detail and sure enough, this painting is an absolute orgy of intricacy and texture! 🙀😻 This background is absolutely insane with so much going on, so many different wooden textures, colours and grains on the throne, treasure chest, barrel, crate, floor and that sort of archway thing on the right side of the image. All of these surfaces look fantastic with their little nicks and scratches, different engravings and patterns. The various cloth throughout looks great too, like the shredded red fabric hanging from the top in the background, or that skull symbol on the chest, there's even a nice bit of red draped over the edge of the crate which itself has a tonne of detail as it crinkles and folds over itself. The shining bottle and it's tattered label, as well as that insane dagger with it's various plane changes all look marvellous. Oh and I also love how the cushion Vanessa is sitting on is torn and even has it's stretched out stitching, very fun little detail. The colours here are all gorgeous too, a lot of warm tones here with all of the wood and Vanessa herself, broken up by the cool grey and green of the cave wall and water, with things like the cannon-ball, dagger and bottle, as well as Vanessa's black hair, clothes and blue eyes also adding some cool tones. And speaking of the lovely lady herself 💜, she looks absolutely amazing! I adore her sweeping hair and the subtle shine to it, the strands all breaking off looks gorgeous and the little strand over her eye is delightfully sexy. Her face is wonderful too and I especially like the definition of her eyes and the area around them, as well as the shine on her cheeks. The lips are lovely too with the line of light running above the upper lip, while the lower lip has it's shiny, juicy texture. And damn, I'm a sucker for blue eyes and hers are especially striking 💙💙 And although she isn't wearing very much, the clothes she does have look fantastic with a tonne of detail and texture to them. I really like the thick leather straps around her arms, with the actual gloves having a gorgeous texture and subtle shine to the deep red with very well defined creases throughout. I also like the detail of how the belt strap over her thigh has some cloth under it, I assume she did this for comfort 😹. The actual leather texture on all of the straps is fantastic and her bra looks great too with a rough texture to the fabric and with the folds in each side of the bra wrapping over and around the shapes of the breasts, accentuating them even more. And the various metallics are very well done too, with her belt buckle area being most noticeable with the skull buckles and that large, reflective, brassy jewel thing at the centre which I really like. And back to Vanessa herself, her skin textures and anatomy are glorious, I also really like the shines across her body, like along her collarbone, just under breasts, on her right arm and along her calf, they give her this slight wet look which seems appropriate for the setting... it could also just be really hot and she's got a bit of sweat going on, that'd also make sense! 😹😅 Her stomach area just looks wonderful and I love the concave shape as it bends inwards on itself, with a little crease at the belly-button, while the length of her legs is simply gorgeous 😻😻😻😻😻. The textures are a perfect blend of sensually smooth and painterly and the lighting and definition is perfect. I love all of the little plane changes at the knees, as well as the starker contrast in light and shadow along her raised thigh, with the definition of her calf being especially great. The foreshortened feet are so very well done too with their textures and overlapping shapes. And of course, her breasts look lovely too, I always enjoy the soft shadows on the upper/inner planes where they connect back to the chest while also accentuating their shapes. Absolutely beautiful and insane work on this painting! It's an absolute masterpiece of ridiculous levels of detail 😊 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 And I just love how tattered and rough everything here looks, with Vanessa as this perfect, smooth diamond in the rough... though not without her own coarseness 😉😹

Wow! Who is that? Is she a pirate? Imagine the rest of her crew looking like her and you were the cabin boy, young guys would be lining up down the dock to apply for the position. Starting to notice you are really pro at showing depth without calling attention to what you are doing to show it. Like how her feet look close up and you can almost measure out the distance of objects around her with your eyes. I really appreciate that when a lot of arts works can look really great but seem 2demensional yours really seem to pop out even more than some real photographs do. Well done. :D

Oz Roman

I like that your characters aren‘t perfect tittie-monster, they have slight edges.

Hasti

Thats a pure Krys all the details and class are making this perfect Art

Hasti

Nice feet like always!

Peter Chan

Is that cushion smiling, or leering...? Enquiring minds wish to know. First time I've felt envious of a piece of upholstery, but that's between me and my therapist. And, of course, what every one else is saying too.

Rapscallion

Super exquisite..awesome !!!!

xanlank

Honestly I don’t have the energy to comment on the attention to detail on the background, just well done, kudos. This image feels like WoW. So yeah. You win. 👍🏻

Rightender

Lee

thank you! I'm glad you liked them!

Lee

thank you! I loved the idea of this one =D

Lee

yeah while most of the time the lineart convey the idea very nicely, this time around I simply couldn't get as much as I wanted there lol

Lee

Really fantastic work, and full of character. My favorite of yours yet!

Japes

Love the whole thing, all of your work is ... um ... !superb! Please don't stop creating.

Jim

Awesome details. I especially like the abdominal work. Great job!

Damian Graham

The details are amazing!

Nounou

Man you are knocking them of the park this month. The tanned color of her skin and the pose look amazing.

Alex Clerm

wow, I have to admit the composition and the pose had not really got my attention as much as other sketches before the one for this one but... Wow, such an amazing render. The light and the textures really elevated this one. It is astonishing.
