F'n A! Excellent. Just above the lip looks a little funny to me, but I'm 
not familiar with proper facial proportions.

Looks a little funny around the lower philtrum area.  Other than that, 
it's beautiful... much, much better than anything I've ever managed to 
squeeze out of Wings.

Really good. Great modelling and excellent textures. How did you get the
cloth to shape so well?

You have certainly done justice to your source.  Much about your 
accomplishment is superb, but one think really rocks me, and stays with 
me is the fall of the drapery.  As far as the face, you have gone very 
far towards achieving that Vermeerian sense of enduring, elemental 
shape.  I am picturing your method as one of constantly redoing the 
model from scratch in order to achieve that light touch and sense of 
simple means.

What is the smiley equivalent of jaw dropping on the floor? ;-)
I think this is A-MA-ZING.
I'd lose the earring though. It doesn't do justice to the original. But, 
maybe that just me being Dutch.

hi,

Incredible! But as always there are ways to improve. It seems as if the girl
on your image is more confident about herself, the girl on the painting
seems a bit unsecure, maybe even scared by the painter. Not sure how to
describe the expression by using words as larger/smaller, higher/lower, but
maybe you can. (altough it could be her mouth smilling just a small bit to
much).

But again, the image is wonderfull!

Greetings JWV

Thanks all,

Well, I think that I have some work yet. 3d modelling is like a deep hole, a
story never ending. ;-)

>How did you get the cloth to shape so well?

Free hand and intuition that's what I like because that remind me when I was
an Art school student learning sculpture.
But there is no doubt, everything stays perfectible.

For me, the earring is one of the most important things in this painting. It
certainly brings the depth in a flat image.
Well, work, work, work...

>BTW did you render both girls or mirrored the image?
Mirrored the image.

In fact, this image is a little part of an ambitious project I started
recently.
Briefly, my goal is a kind of re-interpretation of some famous artworks
(about 10 ) I loved when I was twenty. A sort of personnal Pantheon of a
young man.
In this one, I played with the sense of confusion between digital art,
photorealism and painting. I tried also to reproduce the fascination for a
charismatic figure. A sensation that I had when I saw this painting for the
first time.
The concept of twin girls came later. Because my idea was to magnify the
fascination and/or rejection feeling that we have all  about the *copy* (a
propos du double) which is always hypnotic.

PS: Sorry for my poor English, but it is not my native language and is not
the best way for me to explain what I mean.
