That's good information, thanx. Too bad you can't just swing by and paint them for me. I have to cut them out and replace them with donor eyes. Those donor eyes better be human this time!

i have looked at this new picture and must say its a big improvement on the first picture. My critique is, i dont like the stitch lines around the eyes at all, and the face seems to hollow out between the cheeks making her nose look large, this is only my opinion of course and do not mean any offence..

This is just a personal observation, I prefer not having individual eyelashes. Perhaps a single piece that is solid on the inner edge and a little rougher on the outer edge. I also observe that eyelids have a certain amount of thickness.you can really notice it when you look in a mirror. I wasn't inititally aware of it but the eyeball also casts a shadow on the lower lid, even though the light usually comes from the top.

A remarkable piece, Jeff, and I like the mixture of realistic and primitive styles. The exaggerated wide-eyed look is even OK; it has a meaning of its own. And I don't see anything wrong with the nose, either, or hair, if you accept the primitive nature of the picture. Her left eye (right when looking at it) looks good, but the other could use a re-do, IMO, to make them focus together. Slimming the left ankle was a cool idea, it would make her much more graceful. The skin is outrageous! I've got to hand it to you and Toni and Sue. Creating something entirely from the mind's eye is, I believe, what is called "art". Pete |

All the thoughts and suggestions deffinitely helped out alot. I disagree with carls opinion on seperate lashes, but I did like his idea about the black line, so I definitely jumped on that bandwagon. Good thing I have insurance, because the total face makeover had to cost several tens of thousands to do. I cut out the eyes and then noticed what the entire problem really was. The left eye pupil/iris was correct, the right pupil was 1/16 too far to the left. Also, the left eye was 1/16 narrower, so I widened the eye, and then I changed the color, which was a big help, and I didn't round it as much as before, so it is less googly eyed. I have before and after surgery photos. The photos don't look near as good as real life. The nose reflects, and makes it not look quite right, but everyone that see's it in person says it's dead on. I also have a link for the finished/unfinished picture. It only needs a backer and a finish applied to it now. And I sure need more suggestions for a name...what's up with the no name idea's ??? Don't click these links if you can't handle the material subject and are not 21yrs of age. 3 different shots and angles. http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o...mptress048.jpg http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o...mptress046.jpg http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o...mptress045.jpg

Jeff, you nailed it this time. After seeing it with the moon in place it really brings it together. It makes the legs look more evened out and the redo on the eyes is definetly a plus. Now for some name calling. haha "Moon Mistress" or "Moon Maiden", "Seductress Of The Night" for a few. Great work Jeff, Steve

How about "Artemis" which means "Goddess of the Moon". Artemis was a popular goddess of Greek Mythology. Awesome work Jeff. |

That doesn't sound too bad. She does look more egyptian to me now with the eyes the way they are. I'll have to go look up the artemis idea. Interesting change in avatar you have there. Is that you? Looks like a chris angel style photo. Man I can't wait for the new season of mindfreak to start!
