This is from a contest held over at www.conceptart.org The title was Newborn and I did a modern version of The Birth of Venus. The feet leave a lot to be desired and the face lacks form. Not every entry was considered to be up to a professional standard and a number were cut. In the public vote I managed 7 votes, which wasn't bad considering that some pictures didn't get any votes. I knew I wouldn't win, but it was trying the hardest I could at the time and pushing myself. Also I learnt a new program - Serif PhotoPlus X2, which is similar to PhotoShop, but a heck of a lot cheaper. Mine was free due to the power of broccoli.
The I went and entered Battle of the Sexes Part II. This wasn't such a success as my last one, as I thought I had another week. The whole contest wasn't that brilliant as so many people dropped out and failed to complete. Title is A Good Day to Die. My mum posed for me, bless her.
Currently, I'm still working at improving my art skills, but will be returning to the animation soon.
