Wow Yian this is beautiful, such a great use of colour through the skin tones and bandages and I can feel those damaged lips through my monitor. Excellent work sir that I can only aspire to achieve.

Absolutely lovely work Yian :)
(also extra points for painting a woman who doesn't shave! lol No self-respecting pirate captain would bother with such silly stuff!)

Any an all misspellings are henceforth blamed on the cats.

I agree with Charlotte. Excellent axillae! ;)

A really high quality piece of work. The variety and subtlety of the skin colours are brilliantly controlled and it clearly reads as an authentic, living, breathing surface texture and the facial expression really connects with the viewer in a direct way.
More please!

Yian - any chance you could share some wips on this please? I would love to see how you render this type of image to such a professional level.

Thank you everyone. :D

@Atto
Sorry, I didn't save any stages. So no wip for this one, I'm afraid.

Ditto with all the other comments, really nice work. I see Digital Dave indicates you have posted other works. Where are they posted?

Yian... you have no idea how elated I am to find you made it to this forum! I had been wondering what happened with you and missing your beautiful works. It's good to see you here and posting!

I hope all is going well with work and life!
