I'm still struggling with faces, so I did a few tracings of Steven Ellison's (Flying Lotus) face to try to get a better understanding of the planes along with the placement of the features. I gonna try again, but make the break down simpler so I can have my own method to refer back to. Next are a few botched attempts a ctrl paint rendering exercise. It's the round surfaces that are giving me trouble, especially if they're overlapping. I took a break and tried doing a few round objects from imagination. Weren't as good as I hoped, but at least I got an idea of what I should be focusing on painting wise. Gonna pay more attention to contrast, the relationship between core and cast shadows when they intersect and practice making smother value transitions.
