Imogen's Sketchbook of '22

[miimogenation]

Sooooo..  I went to sleep early woke up at silly am and decided to get on with it to the best of my abilities.  - Without being influenced by more tutorials.  So some 11 hours ontop of the original 3..
And I'm quite pleased with out it turned out.

Date: 21 & 22 June 2022
Time: Apx 14 hours from start to struggles to "finish".
Tools: iPad Pro 12.9" - Apple Pencil 2 - Procreate App.








Possibly the best art I’ve ever done!!  ..and selfies are hard.  Sooo..  Feeling happy-ish.

Possibly the best eye brows I’ve ever done.  Using combination of hair brushes but mostly a single line brush to draw in each single hair..  - I actually liked doing that better!!  Eyes aren’t terrible either.  IMO

Also possibly the best lips I’ve ever done..  Genuinely my worst part of doing faces as they always tend to just float. 

But I am learning with this..  I actually had fun.

Also texture brushes to repurpose into skin defects and textures.

Again when viewed smaller the skin looks muddy.  I genuinely don’t understand because the alternative is people telling me I need to learn values.  Bleh.

Hair didn’t go too badly.  I definitely need to stop relying on premade hair brushes even if I did do a lot of soft brush, hard brush and 1pxl brush to draw individual strands..





^ As said in last reply I'll repaint this shirt, but what I ended up doing was just using a textured brush so I could focus on what I wanted to create (a self portrait with my current ability / skills - Which I believe I succeeded in).  I did however not cut off the over paint on the "finished" piece.  But this is sort of how the shirt would have looked if I did.

Proper shirt repaint attempts coming soon. lol.
