Superb scene - lovely character, pose and lighting. Hope the blues leave you soon -- take some time to smell the roses as they say - I'm trying to get back into it too

i think is a very beautiful image Mercedes! love it!!!

WONDERFUL POSER, SUPERB BODY AND HAIR, EXCELLENT SCENE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a friend that calls what you are experiencing "what fall manages to do to some of us". Could be that is all it is Sis. I am feeling something akin to the same. We will get passed it. I love this image. The chick is fine as wine and green scenery is always wonderful. Now how she managed to climb that high is saying plenty. Especially about your brain dear. You crack me up and I love you. Get your behind to writing. I mean it!!!

Awesome composition and blending, i love it :)

I think it's a great scene, well constructed. I like how her left side skin moves as though she's actually climbing. Don't concern yourself with your writing muse - it'll be back when you have no time for it. :)

She is very beautiful! Excellent work!!

I believe that it is a job well done. I like a work that who tells at a glance. Bravo and thanks mile A special tank for your first visite my friend(e) ((5 + +)) Je croie bien que c'est un travail bien fait . J'aime bien un travail qui raconte en un regard . Bravo et mile mercis. Un merci spécial pour ta visite mon ami(e) ((5++))

Oh, I dunno. I quite like it. I am not sure why you don't, but I think it's rather lovely!

Mercy, just let me say that I for one think you did a wonderful job on this scene. Don't be so hard on yourself hon, as sometimes in our desire for perfection we don't take time to stop and look at the beauty we've created. That is exactly what I see in this image as is your trademark the work you put into it shines. As for the story this is one of those rare images that doesn't really need one, as the moment you look at it your mind is filled with stories and fantasies of your own. Your one of the most talented people I've ever known and trust me this block your experiencing now will be a distant memory soon enough.

Excellent work!

I think that this is a fabulous image, super lighting and pose, smashing blending with the photo background too. I'm so sorry to hear about your 'Writer's Blue' Just take it easy don't stress about it and I'm sure it will return if you don't push. I do know what you mean about the neck/back etc., I have the same problem:-( that's really the pits!!

sounds like you've been thinking too much.... when a book/story is created, the author starts out gung ho and just starts writing... there is a point where you hit the breaks, you're in a fork in the road and are getting flashes of story pieces you didn't see coming, you love it, you sit down and think a bit and you realize where you were going with your story has just changed - That's all you're going through, it happens all the time. The other thing, I'd suggest you make a book with a "center" theme with many characters like the movie Crash... you can create a book and shelve it and your mind wond constantly be trying to remember what you need to remember about that character - lol ...As for your picture, It was a wow to me, I read what you said and looked at it, you'r not happy with the right edge - the tree... find a tree with moss and vines on it, paint the righ edge dark and put something dangerous on it - spider? snake? ... give her some blue eyes, a little darker skin, and make her outfit buckskin... maybe drop some color jewels on it. .... I really like your picture, but read what you said... trust me, I got involved in a project I wish I wouldn't of - lol very time consuming, dead line... I've redonea few of the characters after I was happy with them - I went back the next day and said that doesn't look right - lol... hope you get past these speed bumps fast, I know I need too - lol

Is a wonderful scene..lovely character and background. Well done!!

I think this is a wonderful image, very nicely thought out and realized. The character is lovely and everything "fits". Good luck gettin' over the blues.

A super creation here my friend, beautiful character and the background is just marvelous, congratulations!

Get up and Work Girl...this is not a 'blue' and nothing you do is. You are loved, supported and are a treasure! I love this image...(*however not too sure about that wacky logo ... but works to your mood). +five from doarte and the MADHOUSE

This is beautiful, Mercedes!

Beautiful image. I think we all get into slumps, I do hope you get "IT" back :)

Excellent work

Awesome

lets be frank-hehehe:not all the works can be wow otherwise they would not be wow. thats the way i see it-and she loos a bit wow to me nevertheless-lol. well i can understand your feelings,i have not experimented this feelings yet,i only do "art"since 2008 so it might be too early to feel that way. on the other hand in the beginning i was not soo equilibrated handling this gift we have,i tried to hold on onto ideas,now i leave that,unless someone chalenges me and says hey i want this or that scene then i write me down a little details. before i had a to do list for renders. its still there but i dont even look at it as everyday brings me new ideas. when it gets too much i walk away from the pc and watch some crap on tv,after a while it starts there,accumulating scenes in my brains lol.an artists or "art-tit" (my word)life aint easy. keep on going ,its always a pleasure to see and read in your gallerie. i could do a render out of a fart you know.

Wonderful looking artwork dear friend, very well done! Have a nice day, hug’s Ute

Awesome scene!

This is a wonderful render M'Lady! ..and yes.. I know what you are talking about..

I know how those "writer's blues" are. I'm just coming out of one myself...can't say anything sparked me out of it; it just happened for me. Hope the same happens for you soon. :) Maybe taking a break from writing for a little while helps...

Breath-taking view. Beautiful girl. Great job!

That face, those eyes, that hair, so appealing! That spear, such a deterrent! Great background, by the way. As for losing the drive to write, well, unless it is necessary financially, I would suggest that you stop doing it... Until you can't NOT do it! The drive will come back in its own time. Until then, I encourage you to pour your creativity into something else... But if you're getting burned out on 3D as well, there could be a problem. Have you tried macrame?

I really like this render!, I also understand:) Ive been doing this for 10 + years. The eyes are feeling it, I try to (When blue) go out side and relate, may sound weird but, I need the time away because, I love what I do and always miss it:) Anyway cheer up, your work is still lovely. CHEERs.

Very beautiful scene :)
