Nice timing with the last piano keys, haha.
Anyway, still don’t understand how you manage to faces so well. I don’t tend to have problems with bodies, but my faces always seem like they’re too over-rendered, wonky, etc. Is there some hidden knowledge being employed here or do I just need to do more head studies?
Also, how do you manage to even use the soft brush without making it look digital?!
He could be using a soft brush with noise added to the brush settings. Helps keep the grit up.
That’s sounds like a good idea, I’ll have to try that out. Thanks!
beside the intructional value this series was really nice to watch just for entertainment. great music choice.
was also surprised that you started with a linedrawing instead of blocking in.
