This portrait was done in little over three hours. I'd originally intended to spend a lot longer on it but from the very start it was a complete disaster and I decided to scribble on it for a little while before trashing it. Suprisingly enough though, since I just didn't care what it looked like, it actually started to take shape to what I was was trying to achieve, and I finished it rather quickly.]]> Mon, 25 Sep 2006 21:55:22 +0000 http://elsie.cgsociety.org/gallery/401268

Butterflies and make up very inspired by Linda Bergkvist, a great idol of mine. Maybe a little too inspired but I guess it's also sort of a tribute . I made a walkthrough over at http://www.ailsamacpherson.com/xytut.php for anyone interested in my process. ]]> Tue, 05 Sep 2006 07:01:16 +0000 http://elsie.cgsociety.org/gallery/316252

Originally as my exercise in Rebecca Kimmels Open Figure Drawing Workshop (12), I ended up spending quite a lot of time and effort on this piece and really hope that I've done Mr. Bougeureau some justice
It didn't turn out nearly as finished as I would have liked, I never actually got around to working on textures or overall feel to the image, but after 70 - 80 hours on this piece in quite a short time I really did have to take a lot of my friends advice and "just leave it alone now!"
I'd just like to give extra hugs to Becca and Peter for their outstanding patience and encouragement towards me ^^ you guys are great, also to everyone on the OFDW12 thread and CGS WIP thread who helped me.
I'll post a quick step by step process when this thread gets published
