Painting I've just finished. It is a cover for a second book of Bogatyr trilogy (by J.Cervenak). Cover for the first book can be found here: [link]

The Picture depicts Baba Jaga, character from Russian Legends (she was even in one Hellboy story). In the legends she is old and ugly. In this book she looks a little different :).

C&c very welcome

Ah..

The contrast is perfect, it will draw any eye searching the book shelf.

Totally beautiful. I love how much motion and emotion this has... she's awesome. Wow, definitely a different take on this character :D I like her this way... she's a bit more pretty.. but she's still wearing rags and certainly looks feral.

I love all the little details in her outfit.. the intricate little bones, and all the texture on the fabrics. She's just... awesome, in so many ways. Honestly, the only thing I can think of that bothers me, as far as critique, is that the light hitting her shoulder seems a little.. bright? I like the secondary light source, but for some reason it looks to me like her shoulder itself is emitting light itself. If it's supposed, that's great... but it's a mite distracting, my eye keeps coming back to that really bright white spot on the shoulder.

But honestly.. it's a gorgeous work all around. I love how gutteral and scratched into existence she looks. Awesome.

Love the textures and the color palette, its awesome. I think its possible that it gets a little dark on the bottom, but thats up to you. I really wish I had a better crit for you, but this is really good.
