It is a new style for me. thanks sandra for helping me find this image. I will try to dig up the link from where I got it. I didn't save it but it should be in a PM.

From looking at the image, I loved how it was so simple. The dress, the pose. None of it was over the top, and I wanted to keep with that for this piece. I have felt with some of my recent vexels I have gone too far with transistion layers, so I tried to be cautious of them with this.

I think the perls tiggered a 30's feel for me, I know they are still pretty popular now but my head just thinks that way. I played with the original refrence photo to make it a little more vintage, and went on from there.

Beautiful vexel, at a first glance I thought it was real.

Only critique I have to offer is maybe make the arm match the rest of the body a bit more? It looks too yellow.

It is a bit on the yellow side. But It fits your style. I still like it anyways.

Anyways. That guy looks like George Clooney. This is a hot vexel. As always, your work makes me insanely jealous.

I definitly love this alot. Your style is really amazing!
I love the way the skin tone is not all just one shade and instead you incorporated in some yellows and orange and redish tints, but don't stray too far from one certain shade. Like yeah... her arm is yellow yet her head is kinda red. I dunno, I don't really like how you did the hair

but yeah, overall, the shading and depth of it is perfect. The close look amazing! and its pretty realistic. You are a very seriously talented guy

Her hair is kind of odd, but overall I really like it. I love the dress, especially the part on her waist. That pearl necklace is beautiful.

EDIT///: I just went to vexels.net and this is for the comp? Yayyy, super. :D

At first I thought it was a real picture, and you just changed the lighting or the colors a bit. And I agree with everyone else, the hair is a bit weird. Overall it looks great though, it's such a cute picture!

Your vexel is incredible.

However, I think the shading makes her arm looks so skinny.
