This is a seasonal doll I did on my "Zahara" base body, which you can find on my site. Yes, I'm aware of the fact that her outfit is weird and too cold for the time of the year. :P

wintery doll... with a thong on?? wtf? lol... sky is really nice. i think you do a great job of blending the colors withought shading. only thing i see that i dont really like, is that the head is rather round lol...
as noone has mentioned the sky yet: wow, the sky is fucking great (too)
the doll is supreme as allways.. there are not much artists here at pj with such a clean and detailed style.. the whole dithering thing is overrated => i just love how you're doing hairs and clothes
You should be happy when people ask if you used a special generator to do the work. Its the living proove that your art is so beautiful to the point of being unbelievable. Its a wonderful work you did there indeed, and coming from me this should be a great compliment cuz I generally dislike dolls :p They scare me!
Wow! AWESOME =D. I only have a suggestion.. i think you could use more AA in her outlines, you know? As the hair and clothes.. That would make it PERFECT. Congratz
the antialiasing is quite good! there are three things that could be improved:
* the boots are shaded the same as each other, pretty much.. which is very weird looking.. actually, it seems to be an issue with the entire leg.. the far leg is not darkened to illustrate that it's further away. This makes it look sort of bulging out of the picture.. it's weird. Fixing it will make it look hugely better!
* similar thing for the jacket. You've accounted for the angle of incidence of the light on the right side (see how the brightness of the light on the inside edge of the jacket varies), but not the left side. The more side-on view of the other edge should actually be easier to shade in this way.
* the left (left in terms of the picture) arm of the jacket also lacks darkening for distance.
also, some areas could benefit from additional shades.
Inkspot: try adjusting your monitor. I can see the difference easily at 4x, even on low contrast areas like skin.
Sorry for flying off the handle. ^_^' It's just that I spent around 15 hours on this doll (not counting the base, I make those in advance). So, it's very disheartening when someone thinks I've just generated it with some dollmaker.
I prefer to use more colors over dithering, so that's why it looks so smooth. :) This doll has a whopping 71 colors, LOL. :P
No need to get angry. At first, I didn't believe that the base was hand-pixeled, because it is so smooth. As such, I've got to say great job on everything. It all blends together so nicely.
On a side note: dollmaker dolls never have AAing on the clothing outlines, because that would mess up the layering with other clothing items... or other skin tones, for that matter.
If you don't believe I made this, please check out my other work at: http://www.wayuki.nl/ Especially the bases section... I made lots and lots of them. Also, don't forget to check out my base-making tutorial (under "features") for a very indepth step-by-step on how I draw my base bodies. I can make my own stuff, thank you very much. >_<
