I like very much what you've done to Dean's sketch in this variant. The colours/tones you chose to use work wonderfully and I'm a fan of the subtle gradients you have scattered around. I also like the highlighting on the hair - those areas would probably have been shaded by a different artist, so I enjoy the fact you chose to lighten rather than darken. It's individual. My only critique is that it should blatantly be pink

A pink version JUST for you, is planned for this week. My critique with this piece is that my "highlight" work in the hair is a little choppier than what I'd like. Thank you very much for the thoughtful comment.

One of the oddest things I discovered while making this piece, is that in the Print version which is about 7200 px square, all of the stars show up, but when I reduced size down to fit for a Wallpaper, one of the stars refuses to 'show up', as if I had hid the layer, even though I didn't, and even though the particular layer/star shape - is of large enough size (larger than 2 of the other stars which are only about 30% the size of the missing one) to be viewed...

Heh, I appreciate it. The hair doesn't look very choppy at this size, and smoothness will come with practise.

As for the star, I sometimes have layers disappear because Photoshop simply decides it doesn't want to play anymore, but it usually shows up when I flatten the image. If you flatten and it still doesn't show up then you have a very strange issue there.

Strange indeed, because it didn't show up when I flattened..

So, this is the new variant? Very nice! But, why you removed some details like bird etc?

I wanted the focus of the viewers attention, to be on the woman, not on all of the extra elements. I'm considering adding more elements for a personal WP version, but it wouldn't be for public release.

LOL. I didn't say I was gonna make a Jedi. Did I? I just wanted to see some awesome Jedi art. Although, I had begun work on this before I posted that journal you're referencing..

This is best version of all, I'd say. Great colors and composition.

I agree with you 100%. I think I really outdid myself here. Which is good. All along this was to be my Opus. I'm learning to Vector, and this is my first "serious" attempt at creating something beautiful using the Pen tool exclusively.
