Description This is another one I have been working on this week. This time in the evenings as soon as I got home from work took me around 8 hours to do this one as I ended up doing a few major changes!

All done in Photoshop using a Wacom tablet.

Only 8 hours? How the hell did you manage to do this in only 8 hours? DX
Also how do you work on the faces? I can never get a realistic face (the nose seems off..or the skin colors..or something.. look at my Constance Bianca piece and you'll get it) and I don't know how to fix it. ;_; Any tips?

Natashane In reply to KakashiMorph [2012-03-17 13:28:14 +0000 UTC]

To help me with faces I had set myself a challenge to draw 100 different faces (just ones that I had downloaded from google images ) and try to make them look as realistic as possible! I have only done 35 faces so far but I feel I am improving already.

If you draw 100, still not happy, then draw 100 more. You just need to keep doing it until your brain knows exactly where all the muscles and lighting should hit etc

I am going to move onto mechanical objects soon as I am useless at that!

Also, don't work in colour to begin with, only focus on the light, shadow and form, or even just line art and add shading later if you are happy with it! One step at a time and a lot of patience!

Don't work in colour to begin with? Interesting point, I will give it some thought (oh yeah I am horrible at picking colours for my canvas too XD).
Thank you for the advice!
