Thank you! I appreciate the kind words!

i echo the sentiment! really really good!

i was wondering how you got her to pose in costume on a ship
til i read the description

i was thinking you could make her, and the chest *slightly* less bright even if u wanted.

lovely manipulation!

Very nice manip Love the Pirate theme Thanks for using my pirate sword for it

I didn't even notice on the first glance it was a manip! Very good. The only thing that gives it away is her right foot, you might want to put a bit of a shadow underneath it. Her own shadow is a tad too faint, but there aren’t many other shadows on the ship to compare it with. I'm not sure if the chest is an original part of the picture, but its shadow is somewhat stronger than hers.

Thanks for making it available! It's a very cool sword! Glad you liked the end result.

I actually put the brightness down on both of them already... didn't want to do too much on her for fear of losing the skin tone to grey. Thanks for the support though, I've never really done this extensive of a manip before. Light sources are a pain!

Chest was an add-in. The lighting as a whole is the hardest part to work with, trying to get everything to look like it fits together. I'll have to take a look at making some revisions... got a couple of good suggestions. Thanks!

Yeah, I saw that you listed it as a stock after I posted the comment... I don't know how I managed to miss it

The lightning is the hardest, but it's one of the most important things in any picture, because it's responsible for the illusion of 3D... You're quite lucky with this picture that it doesn't have strong light/shadow, I was working on a manip (that would probably never be finished since Photoshop corrupted the file after hours and hours of work ) where I had to completely change the light source on the model, so I know just how hard it can be

I've just noticed on the picture that there are two little steps (how do you say that properly in English?) right behind her left arm that has the shadow falling to the left, but the chest and the model have shadows falling to the right. It's not a big deal though, since it's not so noticeable. Also, there should be some shadows falling on her from the ropes, if you want to keep the shadows falling to the right, and if you want to be really really nit-picky

The rest of the picture looks great, the transition is done nicely, except maybe for the hair, but the hair is quite impossible to do properly. All in all, damn good job
