Test passed, on with the arting! I'm going to transition to an 8 hour personal schedule and see if it isn't too hard to keep up with seeing as I'm in school now. If not I'll go back to 5 or 6 hours.
@Finnjamin - The thing is my wall is blue which is why I make my background blue. I always start with a grey background for everything I do, but if I add colour without choosing a background early on it throws all the colours off. I'm looking through a mirror when doing these mind. Taking that into consideration, should I still start with a grey background? The background is going to have to be blue at some point if you know what I mean.
The value ranges and colours you're using is exactly what I want to achieve so thanks for the detailed process I do appreciate it! I always see people do full studies where they record everything so perhaps that's what I should do. Thanks for the over paint man
@constructicon - Yeah I need to do more value studies and the major plane of the face for sure. I find myself using colour, overlays and hard light layers when transitioning to colour. On top of that I then add colour with a normal layer. Time consuming so I start neglecting it. I'm starting to use a hue layer with a black fill to toggle on an off for value checking and that seems to be satisfying me at the moment.
