The burning part of the cigarrette looks like... I can't think of it at the moment, but it looks extremely out of place. It looks kind of like the coloring from a Road Runner cartoon placed in Advent Children. Does that make sense?
Haha... not really but thanks for the comment
would it be better if i just got rid of all the textures?

A ...er...vector ..huh?
first of all, the cigar is fine..because it's NANA
but the circle should be an oval
the text , you should extract and clean, or vector because it looks too imperfect
there are some jagged lines at places..see if you can fix it somehow
it's really cool idea..
but you really need something elsehm...
black bg? or blood red?
actuallly i'm not sure about the red, but blackwill look better than white..
C: good luck! Ai Yazawa rocksssss

Can you try a dark red?
like elegant velvet dark draping red?
looks a bit more interesting. the circle shape has got to change to oval

I think what Beowulflee means about the cigarette is that the end is stylistically different from everything else - it's got all that speckiness to it while the rest of the image is clean and solid-filled. You should probably go with a simple red glow in a yellow-orange outline, for the paper part. As it is the paper part is also too thick. The shape should also be corrected, it should be a narrow oval, not a wide one.
Good luck!
Good luck!
I agree. The tip of the cigarette looks off, it doesn't match the proportions, and the speckled color takes away from the effect. I think you could still use the speckled effect, but just make it a lot more subtle and sprinkeled throughout a light glow. Cigarettes aren't a solid color at the tip and I can understand using the speckled to represent that, just make the speckle more sublte. I personally love the color change you did to the background, it makes it look much better, much more appealing.
Thnx for all the comments, keep them coming...
maybe itll get accepted this time around... =_=

Hows this?
i made the background more of the bloody color blu wanted
i also made the wallpaper into 3 solid colors: white, black, red
and the only thing that has texture is the background

Awww, that is hawt. Only one gripe: is that some kind of fabric pattern texture? Would be better if it were some kind of rough plaster or wall texture instead.
Good work!
Good work!
Good, but on the vector is some miised parts on Nana's lips.
I agree on the texture part with hamsteranonymous
maybe it's because i'm a perfectionist , but i still don't like how the font is with this bg it's so ..imperfect
atleast make NANA more ...i don't know..just what i think.
most people probably think it's okay thoughXD
you can ignore me
make sure the cigar tip is rounder, you can have them at different levels ..like different lengths at the end because fire doesn't burn in a straight line ( i don't know if you know what i'm talking about)
last thing!
the cigar in the mouth really looks wrong.
and i can't believe i just noticed it.
but there's no opening for the cigar, we don't see any teeth or anything like that..
if you don't want to add the teeth, then make sure you make the cigar look like it's squeezed.. so we can understand how it's like that white her mouth is closed,
because it can't be unpunctured while her mouth is closed.
C: looking good!

I was just watching Black Lagoon 3 and in the OP i found some good pics that can help you
here's a PERFECT example. in yours it seems like the cigar just stops at the mouth right?
here, it's really dark and you can't tell, but it doesn' look like that

here's one of a close up cigar, it's a bit dramatic, but you get the idea^^

i hope they helped
