Jazz ... no need for me, anyways, to suggest any improvements with respect to the neck and angle of the head. As I think you already know?

... ...

Ok, need to earn my cookies then. ;o)

I like the tilt of top hatter and the slightly suggestive pose as presented. I say slightly suggestive, so as to not infer anything improper. Intriguing and certainly alluring, might be apt descriptors.

Perhaps, more subtle ... might be an appropriate suggestion. As in, less head forward. The combination of posture and eyes in particular, would carry your concept/idea more than well enough I believe.

Hope you don't mind the following ...

Inverting or reversing the direction of the wand (pointing down and into frame) might be an idea as well. Do you wish your viewer's eyes to follow that line and move towards the outside of frame?

/\ That's the crux of my thoughts with respect to that element. (A very, very nice touch, by the way.)

Don't mean to rain on your lovely artistic parade here with my words above. And know that when I saw your image in queue, got a tad excited from just seeing the thumbnail.

Beautiful colours, like your medium of choice and but of course, your top hatter here. You've really excelled on a number of points and in the final analysis ... more than good good in my eyes. :o)

Annnnnd ... but of course, thank you for sharing this one with us. Your friend will love it. :o)


Edit: Came back to add some .. ahem .. more words. :oP

On the note of the wand, undecided now (sorry for adding to the confuzzlement). The operative word that comes to mind is that of a 'counterpoint'.

As your top hatter is certainly strong enough to keep your viewer's eyes wthin frame. :o)

Creative Jazzie! I like the concept... her eyes are great too... I agree with you about the angle of the head/neck, I think she looks a little bit in pain the way it is now. That being said, I know you could fix it easily, as Les said, by just making the angle more subtle. Fantastic job Jazzie, keep em comin!

This is great Jazz, I don't have to tell you about her head/neck you have seen that yourself already, but the colors are beautiful and the concept is great.

I am sure your friend will love it:))

I like the colors thrown in there. Oh, and I was going to give you some ideas for fixing the pic, but purmusic beat me to it and did a better job than I would have:)

Wow i love the colours and details!! you just keep getting better! fav+

I love her, And i like magicans:-)

very nice. The face is very well done. The only thing i can think of is that the angle of the arm seems slightly off (have the line come from the upper arm rather than the forearm) and the hand could use a bit of work, other than those minute problems, it's great! (Besides, that's just my personal taste, it works just fine as it is as well.)
Thanks for sharing!

Very well done again. Love the colours and the title. I feel the arm is too muscular and a bit 'twisted' but other then that his is great. verena
