@dimensional-knight Heh, u don't know it, but i dig every thread u are replying to. Ur advices to everyone here useful for me. Somehow u keep mentioning topics that being confusing to me. So u keep inspiring me all the time.
And again! I actually use the asaro's planes as well when im painting heads! But till now I was using only the simplified one on the left. I chose the way of oversimplifying it, while u made it even wider in terms of planes. With my approach i keep making mistakes with faces that being unders strong light, and planes on reference disappear. From now I keep trying to stop thinking in too simplified planes. Thanks for ur suggestion! It finally showed me my narrowed view on faces.
U guys gave me so much information, so much suggestions. I'm so thankful for that! Somehow it's even hard to think about all those things u told me while im drawing. I guess, I just need more practice. My head is about to explode, heh.
Yesterday i started to draw a portrait as a check in what i have studied for a week. Strarted from construction.
I tried so hard on it, i think even spent 1 hour, to just make my life easier while i will paint it.
Today i finished it. My aim wasn't 1:1 copy of it. I tried to make this guy at least familiar to original as much as i could. With colours i wanted to make my own variation, with colours I like more.
I can't say, I don't like what came out. For example, I really like the way how i managed brushstrokes on light side of the face. But I'm not satisfied with the red part of the face, again it became flat with the strong light. Looking for ur critique!
