Re: I do too many portraits.

Takes anywhere between 3 and 7 hours, depending on how many times I'm not satisfied with part of it and choose to redraw it.

I've actually been wanting to start making some good 2d/3d tutorials, these photoshop ones would be rather incoherent, as I tend to jump all over the place when making them.

I wonder how you'd do a young baby. I'm going to email my uncle and see if he'll send me a good picture of his daughter, I already have one in mind. Either that or I'll try to take a good picture of my dog XD

Portrait is better than the original.

I have enough trouble drawing hair as it is, I will not draw your dog, unless you shave him.

I wonder how you'd do a young baby.

I'd try and finish up really fast before the cops showed up.

Oh yeah, sick portrait. I can definitely see that you've improved vastly from the first couple you posted on KBO.

That girl looks 17, in b4 jail for drawing a minor.

Re: I do too many portraits.

I'll just post this here too:

If you'd like me to take your request on a portrait, I must have a photo reference of the person, and it is extremely preferred that the photo be of decent quality, and taken with a real camera, not a cell phone (a cell phone cannot capture any subtle details and generally suck). I won't get into full-body shots yet, I'm not all that great at drawing the rest of the body, not to mention it would take 10+ hours extra...so your photo should be a portrait as well. Send me a picture or post it in here and I'll let you know if it's something I'll be up for doing.

You have serious skills. I've never seriously tried to do human portraits but i'm good at anime. D: Maybe someday i'll try to draw a portrait.

Re: I do too many portraits.

Yes?

derp.

And thanks everyone for the kind words, I didn't know this one came out as awesome as you make it out to be. I kinda get desensitized after a few hours to how something actually looks, which is probably why it was a good thing to have taken a month and a half long break from drawing.

I don't like how you added so much colour to her skin, she seems very pale in the picture. It's really awesome nonetheless, though.

Also DO ME



I dunno if the picture is good enough for you, but it'd be cool if you could do it sometime.

Re: I do too many portraits.

I added more color to the picture overall, I didn't like how cold the picture felt, so adding warmer hues just kinda subconsciously happened.


Also, because I'm getting so many requests from people now, in order to accommodate I'm going to either skimp on the detail or you can wait a really long time before you get your portrait lol, these things take a long time .___.
