Hi, good people of Pixelation.
I'm making a pixel portrait of a friend for her birthday. I'm not good with people, so it's just a direct overpaint:
Here are
the original picture and
photoshop cutout filter (btw am I wrong for using this as an additional reference?).
Everything is very much work-in-progress and will be refined (AA and stuff). Right now I'm mostly struggling with skin colors. Face seems too "flat" to me. I'm not much of realism fan, trying to find more stylized color scheme that will fit.
