Soft Touch SOTW 310

In my gfx lifetime, this is like my 3rd or 4th attempt at full on smudge tag, so I know I have a lot to learn.

cnc would be greatly appreciated :)

p.s why do I always have attach thumb nails or w/e ???:mad:

I love the flow and colours of this piece! The fractals? That have been smudged have been done expertly, and I love the way it seems to carry on through the render! Great work!

My only advice would be to work on the lighting a little, maybe using a white soft brush on low opacity, and give the piece a little extra colour with a pink/purple soft brush and/or gradient maps!

Keep it up Slave!

u know how i feel about this lol great work as i said at TC lol

Damn slave. This is really good. Alot better than what I can do with smudge.

This is the piece I voted for, I really liked your use of colour in this one. The smudging technique used has a nice flow to it, the only thing I really see here that needs improvement is the lighting on her face. The body is nicely blended with that dark atmosphere but the face needs touching up, also more going on with the background, lovely piece :)

It's almost as sexy as her ass.

Great job! I feel glad I even came in 2nd place.

This .

lol full view she is only wearing panties :P, but I couldn't fit her all in and it "fit". June s9 pack I'll place her in the resources for everyone else :P
I agree with the lighting that you all said.. I just didn't know if I was going too dark, but I guess lighting never lies :)
I agree with the bg being empty, usually I drowned the bg in high detail... Though this time I just wanted all attention on the swirl ^^

I also won first place on Oaths site TC too :D
Thanks for the positive feedback folks, just what I needed :D I'll work on my lighting better next time !
