Another gradient mesh piece. I haven't created a vector - gradient mesh in a while, so I wanted to take out the time to deliver one. With this one, I wanted to create something different, something unique. It took about 25 hours, only because of those damn stripes on the dress.
Yea, I'm happy how this one turned out. CS6 has a few great upgrades,, but the two that sold me are gradients on strokes and shadows are consistent between all Adobe products.
I like how you illustrated/colored the girl and the cloth; that is well done. But I think the quality and look of the hair does not do your model any justice; it has not enough depth and it looks to much painted on, what breakes the overal photo-realistic appearance. Besides that; good show
