Digital painting assignment handed in earlier this week. It's the first time I've really done a portrait since I'm not fond of drawing people. Close to 15hrs, I think.

... WOW.
It looks like a photo. o_o That is gorgeous!
I'm not even close to that art level yet...
Yussssss, mission accomplished. That was the goal of the assignment. <3Quote:

Pretty good overall.
There are two spots that immediately jump out at me and could do with a little more refining. The white area under her left eye and between her nose and top lip.
Thanks, bruh. Don't worry, I can point out a lot of other flaws from the original. I grew to hate the picture/assignment because I think it looks nothing like the actual person. But you have to stop yourself before you get sucked into it because other courses are more important than this one, lol.Quote:

Well I never use grid or guideline method to do digital painting because I was too much used with straight away painting without planning.Quote:

Magnificent. :glitter:
I have a lot of photorealistic stuff in my ratemydrawings account and yah, staring at both the ref and your version for 15 hours will make you notice the smallest flaws. Others usually won't even see it. Better just stop than work 500 hours to make every detail like the photo because well... how could you prove others it's a painting then? :P
doooood, I'd rather be better at landscape/objects. People are always telling me environmental art in gaming has a lot of job potential, too! We get to paint more things like that next semester. ﾟ+.ヽ(≧▽≦)ﾉ.+ﾟQuote:
