I kind of like this version more than the colored one, it's simpler and more accurate.

I like them both-this is bolder & more eyecatching though I guess-kind of tee shirt designy (my uneducated thinking anyway )

you gotta tell me how to do this

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Cloxboy In reply to junkie-xm [2007-09-04 20:57:23 +0000 UTC]

I used Illustrator. This is more graphic design than anything else, just get a photo and then trace it or just eye- it, draw all the important elements of the face with varying line weights. The add color, the key is to distribute the light appropriately on the face, think about how the light would hit each particular shape/form on the face. That's about it really, good luck.

I could probably explain to you sometime, when I have time. But I generally don't do tutorials.
