Her face bothered me so much that I didn't bother changing it. Now it is the subject of the painting!





P.S.: Also, there was a stupid-looking monster above her... Which I erased via photoshop! It's still on the painting though.




P.P.S.: The scanner butchered my first acrylic ever, this was the best I could do to make it look nice. :C

I think that's pretty neat.

It'd ridiculously hard to make anything out properly, but from what I CAN see it's pretty good. Shame about the scanner messing it up...

You've always been really good at making bizarre, Gothic inspired art like this.

Cykeeeeeeeee!

I think the folds in the cloth are very impressive and that the lighting is very dark and mysterious. I think it kinda adds a mix of beauty and fear to it, which would've been lacking if there was a monster in it. It would have been just fear, so I think removing it was a good idea. You might wanna consider painting black over it on the original painting to remove it there as well. I cannot, however, make out any face, save for the edge of the lips... I think... I dunno if that would necessarily add to what I see or not, though.

A note to Yamino: Gothic art actually involves making pretty much everything gold. That and giving your building extremely pointy spires. Of course that was Medieval, I guess modern goth means black and white.
