I finally finished it I couldn't wait to scan it and get it posted. I decided not to update the Shania Twain WIP only because I figured you can see the progression. The image I used was a clipping from a magazine. Please keep in mind that the orginal pic of her is very dark. I tried to replicate that as best as I could. I'm extremely pleased with this image since it is my first fan art and also my first true portrait. Hope all of you like it
I dedicate this to my husband . He's always inspiring me.
Nearly 18 hours......I know, it's a long time, but hey...it was very hard and frustrating...and it was my first time dedicating myself to such an image.
Mechanical pencil with HB lead in 0.5mm & 0.7mm on Strathmore medium 11"x 14" 80 lb. (130 g/m squared)
Very beuatiful. I think you could have smudged it a little more because the shadows on here face have gaps but still it's beutiful. Her eyes are too black, and her lips are a little dioriented, her hair could aslo use a little more movement. But when you look at it in whole it's fabulous
Thank you for your comment and constructive criticism. It's very helpful to get another perspective. I hope to master this and perhaps make my future images more detailed.
Wheee, its done! Geez, for a first portrait, that is criminally, insanely, awesome! Everything is great, from drawing , shading, depth, fantastic stuff! Keep it up!
wow this is very good. the shading looks excellent, especially on the lips. and also the teeth look very realistic which i often find hard to do. the detail in the hair is also very good. it really looks like her too.
Some people have been asking me about this stuff so I decided to gather all information in one single article on how to make your own portfolio, in a profesional and clean looking way. I hope it's useful, because these steps I myself take.
DeviantArt is full of extremely well produced artistic fashion and fine art photographs. Make up. Styling. Creation of scenery. Story. Light. Glamour. A combination of these expressions sometimes make up a great photograph. But the protagonists of these pictures are usually female.
So... now it's the time for male models to come into focus.
`karemelancholia is one of the most genuine deviants you could ever met. Always active and a true deviantART cheerleader and supporter in every aspect. You can always count on her to lend a hand or get involved, and you usually will find her doing large amounts of both at any given moment. She's consistently reports on contests around dA, showcases the efforts of her fellow artists and shows her charitable side through various activities. Besides all of this, she's a truly talented artist which is why she's an obvious choice for deviousness this month. Read More
