Description

It's me again Q_Q I managed to finish this new "Portrait" in about four days, and I'm really done now xD I put Portrait in "", because I used a Reference, but i wanted to do something unique and totally different, and i wanted to practice my abilities in reproducing a picture, cause I can soon take my own photographs (birthday's just tomorrow and I'll get a Digital Camera (yay)).

I really liked the idea of painting an independent, somehow tough looking young woman, who is confronted with suicide, or at least death. Completely contradictory. I liked it. I intentionally wanted her to have infantil eyes, and "natural" skin with freckles and in opposite to that, she simply HAD to be a smoker

What i loved about glittercunt's Photograph was the position of the head. With the help of the hair, she now seems to fall backwards, as if she already pulled the trigger.. I also tried some different brushed like the chalk brush e.g., like the effect that it made on the hair...

There is also something i totally messed up: The nose -__-' I just didn't know how to fix it so i finally gave up and left it like that...

Now to the technical stuff:

Painted on 2600x1600, Photoshop 7.0.1, Wacom Volito
