I wondered where you have been Peth,
Now I know!
You have been spending time on a beautiful woman.

She looks gorgeous. I like your work on the eyes.
The darker skin tones seem right for an Indian lady.

I love the rich red patterned background.
I've put your background in my memory bank for future use.
I have a feeling you may have forgotten to take out a patent on it.

Cheers Matt, Don't tell my wife!?

Yes the darker skin tones aren't that apparent in the original but hey... creative license.
The background is a fav of mine - made up of a material pattern I found through google and then applied onto red with an overlay effect if I remember correctly.

Hey, why don't I ever see you enter the contests? Seems to me you'd do pretty well.

Nice to hear from you as always.

Thanks non, No just strand by strand with a wacom pen... hair brush proved a bit hard to control.

Very nice detailing in her hair Peth

The amount of time u spent on this one really shows... But i guess it aint time for u to lay this one to rest

First thing I noticed the color bleed into eyebrows... (her) right eyelashes are still b&w in spots and yes :d u did miss the earring :d ... Another thing Indians dont have green eyes... Mostly its kind of black-brown. Though the exquisitely detailed hair doesnt go well with the rest of the slightly blurred image its one hell of a great job u have done.
