Description

This one was not easy to make! What I like most about Stephanie is her long neck. I think this feature makes her ideal for my artistic vision. The foreshortening view and the plastic lighting are an *intentional* reference (and humble tribute) to the painting style of Michelangelo. Pser 4, Photoshop. Stephanie Elsa texture (RDNA), Anton's changing ponytail hair (DAZ) Thanks for viewing :-)

Thank you all :-) You're right Kfox, I was exactly captured by the idea of mixing the classical style with the modern haircut! For some mysterious reason, I think it fits perfectly, and it gives it some extra edge, because this way it's not a quotation of something past, it's more like bringing an ideal from the past to live in today's world - something that I find fascinating. Authority and Heart'Song: I spent several hours in Photoshop for this one. I wanted it subtle and essential. I hate it when you see an image and you can say "oh it's filter xyz from Photoshop". Or when you see something so overdone that it looks like the promo ad of a plugin filter. I wanted to achieve something that was indispensable to the image. At the same time I wanted the original rendering respected. And that's what happened, in spite of the postwork, the original rendering is "still there" for the most. That's what I think makes it strong. Postwork only brought the concept to the surface, but the vital energy must be there from the first time, there must be something very vital to begin with.

There is a classic timelessness......and I really like your commentary. Vital energy is a perfect way to describe it.
