Part of the drawing is cut off (it's supposed to be wider) but i bet you don't mind :) Sketch and basic shapes were done with linux version of Xara Xtreme, the rest in Inkscape. The pose and shading turned out well but i'm not so sure about the mess around her.

Depends upon your thoughts and design idea?!Quote:

I think it turned out well too. There is no doubt as to the center of interest. I can't help but wonder what the other shapes mean to you though. And in that regard it's perfect because it makes the viewer come up with his or her own ideas about it.
I like it a lot. What could you not do in Xara, though? Just curious.
if using the linux xara quite a lot is missing [unfortunately]..... as for using linux itself ...
I think it is a really beautiful picture. The so called mess looks great, I think maybe you had something else in mind but this is just how it came out. I like it anyway..!
I love it. It can a bit tricky designing in shades of gray, I do it all the time for Good Morning Sunshine, you have done it very well.
the red die[dice] works well in contrast - but the red text dosn't work for me, thats the only bit I think is 'messy' - rest is done very well
Thank you all for the comments.
Maybe the bright highlight on the red text is too much... The thing that seems a little out of place and distracting to me is the small top spiral (purely aesthetic thing, design idea is not relevant here [my idea wasn't perfectly clear anyway]) and maybe the bottom one as well - it's really alone there :) Well... it's just details, nothing critical ;))Quote:

None of this applies to the windows version of course.Quote:
