I'm in the Trunk, in the Trunk...

I really focused on skin shading and I think I did really good. I used a previous hair-style and just some smaller clothing because I didn't really want to spend so much time on it. Those are active-wear stretch short(I have a pair similar in RL) and a plain black tube top. 

The wedges are from Christian Siriano's payless shoe collection.

Enjoy:]

Long time no post

It's been a while since I last posted AND since I made a graphic ... Well, right now I'm working on a project + graphics for it and as well as on my graphics blog header.

For now, I'm gonna show you a half of the header for BEAST. Just finished it and I think it turned out pretty. I've tried out a new hair technique but I'm not sure about it ... I'm gone practice a little..

Well, it would be nice to hear your opinions and constructive critz ...

Just want to make clear

Hey, so as the new co-owner here I just wanted to make a little reiteration that I will not tolerate swearing here on The Graphic Vault. You may say "But it's freedom of speech - I can say what I want!", but swearing is vulgar and quite frankly unnecessary language. You can express yourself perfectly well without using swear words. The first time a swear word is used you will get a strike/warning, the second time another strike/warning, and the third time you will be removed from the blog. You may think this is drastic, but I think   bad language is just not required here on the blog. There are also a number of young readers of the blog, casual swearing is not something that they should be seeing as it could be a huge influence on them not only in virtual life, but real life.

*YAWN*

Good Morning Sunshine!

There are two versions of this graphic. 

The first is one without some small details and the second is with the details. I'm not happy with the pillow, but the sheets are something of which I am.

I made the hair, and everything besides the hands. For the hands i used a reference image. I originally tried without the image, but they looked horrible, like pink twigs bent at off angles, but here they are.

The model is someone I made up, but I'll be using her, myself, and another model I made for my graphics. She just woke up after a hardcore night of partying with her best friends. 

I am really proud of the collar bones and I'm gonna stick with that technique for my models. Those who say it isn't "correct", I'd like to point out that everyone is different:]

But yeah, please comment! 

Spoiler for HAUTE

Long story short-- there's going to be another issue of HAUTE this winter! Are you excited?

Anyhow, I really love how this came out, I really don't have any complaints! Obviously there's the background, I know it doesn't really fit, nor does the text though, but I wanted to keep it as close as I could to the theme for the Winter `12/`13 issue. What are your opinions on the graphic? Gosh, I think those legs are so sexy! (:O) Thanks to Nika on one of her graphics for helping me shade close to correct as I could ;)

Trying a New Beat

I've got a new sketch book, which I'm so excited to fill! But before I got it, I made a graphic! I tried something new, which was using the Stardoll skin colors, and not my own made skin colors. I really think it turned out pretty good, but I still prefer my own. I might keep the highlight colors, but not the shadows...

Anyways, here is the graphic! 

The T-shirt is actually one I have in real life. 

Lips For Kisses is something my friends and I have an "insider" about. 

Expect another tomorrow, because I am not busy at all this weekend!

Happy Halloween!

Happy halloween :-)
I do realise this is a day late. It's November now, how time flies!
I did have a coloured 'halloween effect' version up, but I prefer the original so here it is!
Super pixelly but it's only a screenshot of it. Nowhere near done. Thoughts?
