Title: [WIP][C+C] Self Portrait
Post by: Boraka on October 14, 2015, 09:53:29 pm
Hi there!

Today I've been working in a little self portrait (I don't have a image reference) just as an exercise and for fun. This is what I have so far.

I have centered for the moment in shapes and volumes. Any tip or criticism you have is far wellcome.

Bonus:
This is what I drew in July trying to do the same exercise. You can tell the difference (I was a brunette then) :-[ :-[

You should avoid double posting; especially after only one day. Rather edit your posts to add updates.
Once your thread has fallen over onto the second page and you have significant updates then you can double post.  :y:

Here's an edit next to yours for comparison:

Her stomach shouldn't have any light reaching it directly (your brightest shade) because the tits will block it. The dress is a complicated beast, but if you imagine the legs beneath the dress giving it its contours then it's easier to manage.
Other than that it's looking fine - keep up the work.

How about pushing her gesture a little bit:

I've tried different clothings and hair styles, also different facial expressions and finally a diferrent pose

I think I'm going with this for the win:

(The text in the picture has no much sense in english, that's why I haven't translate it)

Edit:
I've done my best translating it to english  ::)

it's a little pedantic pun (about "loose women" and "banners" in spanish, that's why in english loses so much sense)
