This Jam's model is Laetitia Casta, but I'm sure you already knew that.

The style is slightly inspired by Margret Savage. Fun drawing.

Cool Jam!
maverikanim- Wow! I really really like yours! I love her face and how you handled the pattern on her skirt. and the....... (I could go on and on)
Lavern n Shirley- I can't see yours. but I'm sure its lovely
Luchs- Very Nice! I really like how you handled those ultra long legs. (That was the hardest part for me) what?s your secret?

here's my version, its a bit of a quickie. Hopefully I didn't screw it up too much.
C&C's are always welcome.

Adam - Thanks for putting up new reference. Nice shots... See you down in L.A. this week?

Maverik - You do Marguerite - and yourself! - proud. Wonderful picture, great stylization, and that face...! Great work!

Luchs - fun take on Vampirella!

Kristen - Wonderful style, and i love her face and hair. There is one part that isn't working as well for me, and as you asked for C&C, I hope you don't mind that I point it out: Her body is swivelled over to the screen-right, putting her center-of-gravity well over to the right with nothing to balance it underneath. Looking at the reference shot, she too has her upper torso over to one side, but the hips are cocked to the opposite side to balalnce it. All of her weight is firmly on her right (screen-left) leg, and that foot is planted not under her hips but off to our right a bit, solidly under the center of her mass. You might want to consider where your figure's weight is and then figure out where the feet would be planted to compensate and balance the weight. Maybe you could move the legs (or the feet or the torso or the hips) to make her feel more grounded. But aside from thatm the forms of the legs (and the feet and the torso and the hips!) are shapely and have good forms to them!

Off to L.A. for me as previously mentioned, but maybe i'll have time to contribute when i get home...? Have fun, all!

Hey everyone,

I haven't posted anything in a while and when I saw a Drawing Jam featuring one of my favorite ladies...I had to do a little something.

Walrus- How are you doing these days? I?d just like to thank you
for that great critique. I knew there was something wrong w/ those
hips and legs but I wasn?t sure how to fix them. I really appreciate you
going into detail like that, it really helped. I hope to fix the problem-areas soon.
Have a wonderful trip to LA, sounds like fun!

(I?m in the process of moving to Missouri in the next few days so I?ll be without
a computer for a long while. This Jam might be over by the time I can post my
updated girl)
Thanks Again,

Thanks for the Love StudioBueno!
I really like the illustrated style to the hair and the way you captured her hands in your piece. Good Job!

This is such an awesome photo, I had to take a stab at it. I think if I cropped her off at the mid-thigh it'd look ok... her leg's position makes her look a little off balance. Hopefully I'll have time to fix & ink it.
