Pixel Joint Forum: approval of my latest submission

Message

   I was kind of expecting this 'needs revision' notice, actually.. Even that it took a while and was categorized with the 'miscellaneous' reason for needing revision. More that in general nobody would know what to make of it.

Well, I'm not sure what to revise. I can remove the BG (though I rather wanted to do a BG in that style that wasn't a cityscape). I could make the skirt match perspective better at the front, but I've tried it before and I'm pretty sure that you'll find it looks damn odd in this style. I could change the length of the bit where the skirt sits out  -- I wasn't sure about this to begin with, but it's actually rather difficult to control precisely in this style.

Rounded legs, I don't think I can do (the current state is probably the closest to rounded). I could make the arms bigger -- just tried that, and in my observation (IMO, because the other IMO is valueless), it could work. Though it makes her look much more chunky cause of the style rules.

Her arms are short? I think they were supposed to be held up so the end of her hands pointed at you. I could try to unfold them (though that would probably prevent the skirt, and I don't see any way to designate her femaleness clearly in an angular style except that obvious exaggeration of figure.

If it appears that the nipples are visible -- well, I dunno what that is. but try removing it. it seems to define minimal roundness of her bosom.
.. Okay, think I've done.. something with that. still looks like somewhat rounded abs to me. I don't think it agrees with the style (though it technically matches the style rules.)

... what was the actual reason for requiring revision of this?

	Thanks :) yeah I figure part of the reason it got rejected was confusion. It wasn't ever blue, actually.. The preview was blue, the picture was grey. I can make it blue, though.. probably should.

	You are definitely right about people not being able to make heads or tails of this. This one had a lot of "queue" scores going both ways basically bringing its score to zero (it was in the queue forever). The piece is definitely intriguing, but I don't know what to think. It's hard for my feeble mind to grasp abstract pieces I guess.

	:) Just added some color in a color style that seems to work sort of for the image.. even some shading. Maybe after I do the legs, it will be more approve-able.
