Portrait Pose….Rendering
Adjusting, applying, and re-arranging. This is different. I’m really winging the clothes….I don’t much care if the folds are exact…just that they imply what they are supposed to. Haha
I think I’m still in my Desktop View mode. One of my favorite views!
I learned awhile back NOT to use graphite pencils to outline my figures when doing a color-sketch. No matter how light the graphite…the lead will leach into the surrounding areas. Just better to avoid it all together.
I am still amazed at how many different colors there are in a specific solid piece of clothing….orange is not just orange, ya know…..those folds split that light beam apart. Who would’ve thought those shadows had that much purple? Haha…purple my most neglected personal color! I really should start to appreciate all it’s benefits because it is everywhere!
Now if I could just buy that dress..
ReplyDeleteHave you considered being a designer?
Sweety thats called Artistic Liscense and i use it all the time. LOL! This is turning out great! Hmmm ...i outline everything i do in pecil first but haven't really noticed a leach problem.....have got to be able to erase ya know....:) deb
ReplyDelete@JP- I really don't have a lot of original clothing ideas...I'd make a lousy designer!
ReplyDelete@Deb- gotta love that Artistic License, huh? Possibly if I applied more wax I wouldn't notice the graphite. Bonus, I'm able to erase the colored pencil lines...if not applied to thick.
