Banner for SMM

Hello everyone!!

It feels like ages since I last posted a graphic here. What a shame :O
Anyway, I'm back on track and busily working on a bunch of new graphics. Here's what I've been working on for the last 10 days ...

Click for full size, please! :3

So this is Cathy aka mathildamath modeling for the banner of Sparkle Model Management. It was some hard work and I focused a lot on the detail, but I think it turned out well.

What do you think about it? Please comment!

Cover for RNTM Backstage Magazine

Hey guys! :)

This is a graphic I made some days ago, it will be the cover for the RNTM Backstage Magazine which will be released in the next few days. Here it is:

For the finished issue I will change the background and add some headlines and stuff. 

I also posted this graphic on TGV.

What do you think?

Cathérine goes Lana Del Rey!

I'm back with a new post!
I haven't had much time for Stardoll and graphics for the last few weeks because of school and private issues. But now I've sorted out some problems and I even have more time for graphics now (there isn't much to do for school right now). So, this is my newest graphic...

I also posted this on the Graphic Vault.
The graphic is based on the ad campaign where Lana Del Rey models for H&M. The model is RNTM winner Cathérine and she really looks great with this look, doesn't she? This graphic is just part of a big editorial photoshoot with Cathy for the Stardoll Crown Magazine.

I've improved my shading technique, especially the one for hair and clothing. Thanks again to Lindsey (LoveGossip4Life) who inspired me a lot!
I know I still have to work on the neck because now I see what the others mean - that "U" is overshaded and looks kinda odd. Anyway, what do you think? Any opinions? Let me know!

Face Shading Improvement!

So basically I don't have any time to do some new graphics for my blog, but I'm just too busy with Spice Couture. I want to get it finally finished!! But it seems like I'm able to release the first collection this weekend.

Anyway, I wanted to share this with you ...

Oh my gosh I can't believe that my face shading has improved so much! I tried to shade the cheekbones not too dark or exaggerated. I also like their make-up, especially the one of mathildamath. Thanks to my new make-up brushes!! Haha ;D

I used both of them for Spice Couture, so you will recognize these looks on the runway. I'm sorry that I'm recently posting only about my fashion line and faces. But I promise that after I've released the collection I will start doing new graphics (and no more faces).
