Description im....
just a lonely heart

...in a sad cafe

i....
bring love to all

...in a sad cafe


What use is ones art if no one else can use it!! So I decided to make a full-fledged tutorial. This tutorial I made from my Kate Winslet portrait which is available at [link] Actually I enjoyed making it look eye-candy and as you can see im experimenting with digital art. Anyways!!

I have dedicated it to the great Traditional artist *Tunaferit . Most of you reading this comment must be knowing him. He has a great human spirit and is always tying to promote his fellow artists. Because of him ive got a couple of hundred pageviews and quite a number of watches. By this tutorial im also trying to help new artists, so it becomes a proper dedication for him. All hail to Tunaferit.

As an attempting portrait artist who always rips her own out when trying hair, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. The portrait itself is beautiful and the text is nice and illustrative.

...I hate to be a whiner on this, but aren't you missing a couple points in the third portion? I was curious as to what you had to say about it.

Oh, and I got the easter egg. Thanks again for an awesome tutorial!

thanx for this, I needed help with some things about highlights and shadows... This way is much easier than just drawing the shadows, trying to leave the highlights white, and hoping to get them right...

CrystallineColey [2007-04-22 02:14:17 +0000 UTC]

That's a really wicked tutorial! I was wondering what you use, one pencil throughout or multiple? I'm curious to know which ones did which shading levels, I make bad choices in that myself and end up with a portrait where the pencil destroys the paper. XD Either way, I'll definitely be putting your tutorial to work!

Btw... "I got the easter egg"

LensNation In reply to CrystallineColey [2007-04-23 00:59:25 +0000 UTC]

And lol, he wasn't whipped! hahah...he was canned. but some thick bamboo or rattan Whipping sounds medieval...ha. Ah, i thought you meant strict because here chewing gum is banned can you believe it >.< Recently they allowed chewing gum in small portions but still, no eating in public. HAHA

Little-kaiyou-Kame In reply to LensNation [2007-04-23 10:37:10 +0000 UTC]

hey, i've gotta say thanks!!!! I've been looking for a tutorial like this! it's gonna help me with my sketching, so thanks alot.. despite the fact some of the instructions are missing.. like, 9, 10.. but, i don't know. maybe you just forgot them. *shrug*

LensNation In reply to HavokofJade [2007-03-13 11:13:22 +0000 UTC]

Those missing instructions were the easter eggs... didnt u get it in my comments. I posted those two points later in comments. This was a way for me to see how many people actually read the whole thing. Out of all these page views and comments you are 21st person to know this fact
