Description

I was asked by the client to emulate something that resembled the covers of the old comic book: Conan the Barbarian. Some of those covers were done by Boris Vallejo so I had my work cut out for me. One common theme that the covers had was 'damsel in distress' and that fit well with the image I was given.

You do excellent work with the anatomy. Again, good work with color, composition, and lighting.

Exactly! As I saw it, it reminded me of Boris Vallejo's art... to tell you the truth, my first impression when I saw it was: WOW!! :o .... Not only for the fact that your character is extremely sexy, but for the fact that your human anatomy is impressive, your colors, your lighting... TRULY AMAZING!! +7/7

The figure does looks great, but I can't say I'm too keen on the background rendering.

whoa, wicked pose! really great work executing that. the snake's head is bothering me a little, but i'm givin this a 10 anyway. great work


Edit:
hmm, on your website you had typed your art is sometimes not entirely painted, but that you use photos which you enhance by using techniques? is that the case with this one?

Great figure and mood. The lighting is good too. But the fire and lava need some more work, in my opinion.

Looks very cool! Great job on the girl. One suggestion though may be to add some glistening sweat to her skin since her enviornment is really hot. ;)

You really captured this "old comic book" style. Wonderful colours. The anatomy is simply perfect, I am amazed by your skills to paint her foot on the foreground (her left foot), brilliant!
You should add few dramatic effects to enhance the scene: I would have liked to see more fear in her expression (open mouth for example), because it seems she's watching the snake thinking "oh a kind little snake on my leg!" (I exaggerated the thing just to make you realise it). Also I agree the "sweat" comment by CreativeSchism.

Boris Vallejo is one of my greatest early inspirations to create fantasy art. And I can totally see his style elements in this work. The anatomy is excellent. Very well done.

Wow, this is awesome! And Boris Vallejo's style is indeed a challenge to take, but you have hit it very close! :)

Great job!

You captured the Conan cover style well, and it's all well painted. But her arms look too long compared to the rest fo her body... If she stands up normally, won't her fingertips reach far beneath the knees? Or is it just me?

This is amazing, and she is hot.

Wonderful colours, textures, I love body and pose... She's really HOT... If I want make a photo like this art, I need hollywood production and budget... painting is very difficult, but absolutely free.... Respect

This really reminds me of Boris and Julies work, but with your own twist to it. I do agree with the sweat comment. Nice work!

Very nice work indeed! Is this a photo manip? As someone stated earlier you say you use photo elements in your work. Either way it still looks nice, but if it is a photo manip it's in the wrong category...if not then forget what I say :)
