I did force myself to go back to it (even though I wanted to play some Skyrim/Witcher!)
Still terrible but making it more stylized helped a little...




And that's a nice forehead, Atto!
I'll focus on that instead of icky zits. :lol:


I neeeed bed now.

Domain of sleep it is. In I must go. :yoda:

Yup it is! This was the original but I wanted his reaction to be toward something slightly less violent.

Glad you got rid of the phone too. :lol:

I can never decide which kind of reference I like least. Phone reflected in mirror or something taken with the front facing camera? :P
Either way it's a "challenge".

Yup. Either way you get all those horrible distortions you mentioned in a previous post.
Eurghhhhhh!

Sometimes it's fun to just trawl through photos and play "Bad Reference Bingo" to see how many pet peeves you can tick off in one image. Wide angle lens so that everything looks like the back of a spoon? Cropped forehead? Seatbelt selfie? Instagram filter? We have a winner! :lol:


This one from last night was a much more satisfying reference. Although I did remove the hands. :oops:

Awesome! Awesome lighting, awesome drippy bits, awesome inky stains, awesome background.
Ah my old friend the IG filter! I love how people throw a filter over a photo and call it art. Sktchy has a load of these types of artists and they get hundreds of followers. On a platform where people should know better too!
I have an acquaintance who, though I respect normally has been using Prisma recently and claiming they’re actual paintings! Some of my friends love her ‘work’ and I was thinking of letting them in on her little secret but I’m concerned they might think I’m jealous of the attention her work receives.
Guess I’ll just leave them to it.

Today’s Sktchy inspired thing. Not quite finished, a few things to resolve and tattoos to add too.
Just realised I’ve never painted tattoos before! Oh well.
Here’s some process shots too. Normally I forget to save them unless I’m working on a piece for the monthly challenge.
I’m not technically savvy enough to do a video though.

Oof, that's a good hand. :)
Great tongue too. I like doing tongue out pictures although it's often tricky getting the area above the mouth right. No such problems in your pic though.

Another one from me. It's a bit too soft I think. Trying to do these very subtle skin transitions always leaves me with a lack of definition, particularly around the eyes. AND the nose was hard to get right. (Which is why it still isn't right! :P)



Memo To Self: Just leave the airbrush alone! It's not worth it. :unsure:
