'K. I did another. Don't worry, I won't post a thread every time I make a new one. Obviously a WIP, since there's a bunch of stuff missing. I just noticed I was getting close to the ten minute mark and didn't really feel like doing any more vectoring today, or video editing to shrink it under 10 minutes.

Sorry about the music transition...I should probably hire a sound editor for these things.

With the way her lower extremities are done, she looks awfully large. And semi out of proportion. I think you should maybe take a look at the shape that is right below her right arm. Were you trying to speed vector?

Well, she is a fairly large woman. Not fat, but very curvy. The shape on her right arm is the result of her pressing her arm against her body (when the skin spreads out off the ulna bone). I think the biggest issue making her look a bit...chunky is the lack of a darker shadow under her right arm on the dress.

Yes, I think that may be the reason. Her arm looks fine, it's just her hip looks weird. She's from Mad Men, right?

Yeah, it's definitely because the shadow's too light on that side. She's standing with her left hip pushed out, so it needs some highlighting near the base of her right side, with a much darker shadow under her arm.

And yes, she's the Mad Men sex-icon.

I agree that her shape is a bit odd looking. There's something off about her skin and hair color. Like they don't really match. But this is so much better than what I can do. Or attempt to do.

Bah. I'm flattered, haha.

Nah...Joan Holloway is Christina Hendricks' character on AMC's show Mad Men. Might be kinda awkward doing the mother of a murder victim.
