*************FULL VIEW PLEASE*******************
Ive been working on and off this one for a few months now, I wanted to make it as realistic as possible. I used a photo reference and then painted in Photoshop, using as many colour tones and brush strokes as possible. The airbrush and smudging tool were my best friends for the duration of this piece. Once I had painted the whole thing though, it didnt look real enough, it just looked too smooth, so I applied a filter on Photoshop to make it look a bit more rough and oil-painting-like, and it didnt turn out bad. The full size view shows the details but its big so may take a while to load. I hate drawing hair. |
