Originally it was just going to be a simple painting practice  with one of my characters, but I started playing with the lights and I really liked it .3. I just feel like adding that extra shading and light always makes portraits feel more alive. And I think it's obvious I really like that kind of light that only covers a part of the face, it helps me to highlight the face and I think it looks really good ^^" The proportions are a bit exaggerated, I think trying to make it super realistic makes it lose a bit of personality, especially with this character .3. I think I'm improving my realistic style a bit more .3. I have had so many commissions these last days and just had been a bit desmotivated, that I have hardly done as many painting practices as I would like ;<;

I used aphoto of Snape when he was a kid as a ref.

I would have finished sooner, but I wasn't home for a day and then at night my computer crashed and didn't respond :b now it's okay again, but I didn't think I actually will work XD

I like horses, I just hate how difficult they are to draw.

yay

I feel sorry for people named Al (A L) because I see the name and briefly feel annoyance until I'm like, oh, that doesn't say AI

Hey, after finishing Small's portrait, I decided to do a little face painting practice, to improve my proportions, and better understand how to paint and shade the face. After seeing several references and inspirations, I realized that there are parts where you will always see shadow and help to give volume, like around the eyes, under the lips, the nose, and some shadows on the forehead, I know it looks obvious, but from someone who draws humans once a year it's pretty new   I also tried to paint different skin tones, I've heard that painting dark skin is the hardest, so I wanted to try that it, I saw a video that used red and purple as shading, I rather tried to use orange, red and green, I think It looks good, but tell me what you think   Rendering the light skin was easier as I have more practice with it, except for the albino girl, it was a bit tricky as I really couldn't really make out the shadows well when painting ^^" it was quite interesting to see different tones of skin, and see what technique and color was better to shade Also, sorry if the lips and noses look weird, it's very difficult, it's too different from painting lips and noses of animals, their shape and shading are hard to paint (T-T) Any kind of critique and feedback is welcome ^^

pretty true
