LongJh: Ah well, typing helps me think, learn and remember :D Noooo, don't want to push back the hand now after fixing it x_x But I tried to pull the focus back to the face by putting more details and texture there. Unfortunately don't know how to push the contrast in the face and still keep her skintone 'tan'.
(Hopefully last) update on Jasnah:

study

trying to push the realism a bit because I tend to go more and more stylized as if I forget how things look in reality... using softer brushes to avoid brush strokes etc, but not really satisfied so far. not sure how people get a smooth or 'real' look without brushstrokes, yet avoid the soft-muddy look coming from the airbrush or smudge tool



terrible application

struggling with composition for bloodsport 5 (I started out with 30 thumbs)
