honest opinions on my fantasy art. I want to know what people think, before I set off to find publishers in the gaming industry...don't pull any punches...

I like it, go for it boy, if you are still alive!

I've slid this into the correct forum.

My first thought was that this was a photoshopped photo, probably because of the corset. It's very evocative, but I find the lack of contrast and washed-out white of the skin to be disconcerting. Take a look at the fingers; her body seems more like a hole in space, white space defined by the black background. That's a little eerie.

I think the picture you have proffered is interesting and visually exciting.

That being said I think that the industry is probably deluged with people that manipulate photos. I think if you are going to try this angle you have to really stand out- better props, more fantastic designs, more sexual content, something.

Photo manipulation leaves a lot of holes for an art director. What happens when they need an ogre? Can you 'go there'?

I think what you want to do is possible (there is always room at the top) but I would have to see more pics and somethign that really stands out before I would offer strong encouragement.
