Portrait 2 Final

Sam Smith - Self Portrait

Comedia Double Portrait


This is my final render of two characters from the Commedia dell'arte play Servant of Two Masters.


My face...

Final render of my self-portrait...

self portrait part 2



This is my self portrait. Since the prelim image from last week, I spent more time blending and blending and blending. I also did the lip and nose tutorial and incorporated parts of the eye tutorial.

Rage Portrait (part 2)

here's my final portrait ^^ I was inspired by the dramatic lighting in my reference photo and really tried to emphasize it. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

My process was fairly simple- I just blended, and blended, and blended some more with a reduced-opacity brush. I got into the groove with a regular old circular-shaped brush and couldn't really find a reason to switch it up. I worked in sections, completing the purple tank top and jeans first, then the cardigan, then my hands, and finally my face and hair. I'm not in love with the hair, and will probably try to make an extra effort on hair for my next painting.

Below is an in-prog image, showing the colors and basic shading roughed out.
