I have been brought over to the darkside by my fellow DA animators! Hahaha! I was browsing the Sketch Tavern forums [link] and saw a hawt girl.. umm, yeah... and I couldn't resist doing a portrait of her. It doesn't look exactly like her because I couldn't quite capture her features entirely.
Done in Painter 9.. my first time using that program, although I found it similar to the way Painter 6.1 operated. And just like the older version, this new version CRASHES TOO (be aware of that and save often)!! I used different oil brushes, conte, and all those other funkay brushes Painter is known for to make this piece. Basically an experimental painting to learn the new program
I started off SUPER rough, but in the end, I just added more and more details to this pic and had a final picture by the end of the evening so here we are!
