Handsome Korean's Sketchbook

absolutely stunning work on that elf lady. The rendering on the face is great and how you manage to get that many colours to work in one piece is beyond me, beautiful ^^

your encouraging words really mean a lot considerign that when i look at my old work i only see all the mistakes in it and things i don't like about it.

Really stunning work here, excellent choices in colors with a ton of subtle variety that really enriches it.  Your brushwork is very solid and confident which gives your image a very professional looking finish.  Keep up the great work!

 appreciate your kind words. one thing i feel is working well right now is putting in the bluer colors on parts of the face/ body that hits the sky light. so for example, the forehead, parts of the cheek bototm part ofthe nose bridge,  will be bluer than the rest of the face. for darker skin tones, more colors of the sky is reflected so there would be more saturated blues.

im rlly digging this new process by jens claessens too. im saving so much time on the portrait and giving me a new confidence that i can do bigger pieces without worrying about the enormous amount of  time ill hav eto spend on it
