Hi Doru, thats great decision, looking forward for the next 97 portraits

i have an advice for you for the next potraits,
dont use to much grey otherwise the whole potraits will look as an old painting/washed. i hope you know what i means.

here is my quick paintover and color correction.

[mjasnowski]

WOW loving your work, can't wait to see the next portraits! Great idea for a challenge

[Dorutza]

cheo36 - : D it s good to have a goal and so on : )

irawan - I understand what you mean by color but i love grey colors alot and the paintover you did for me it is more saturated than my own. will try and keep my colors a bit more "fresh" but i still will use greys in my colors since i just love the feeling of "old painting" It really shows a different in style i have to admit that : D Thanks!

mjasnowski - Thanks dude.. but started on a "from head" drawing portrait.. and my back just started hurting so i m gonna stop for today and finish it tomorrow : )

I have a friend coming over as well : ) gonna do a collab with her!

[irawan]

i see! that's just my humble opinion.
i just tell you dont use to much but of courese everything is up to you,you are the queen in that case.

old painting it was the wrong word, because i like the old/classic painting much.

i was thinking about old painting which means lose the color by time.

i love grey as well!
and i love your work.
and i also love ...!

It s like Vanessa said.. to me : ) she will come over to do a collab.. and she worked once in PS.. but when she did it first time on my computer she was amazing good for her first time! We both go to Atelier Stockholm.. and i guess our traditional skills are helping us get used fast with PS : ) dunno..

But thanks! : D

[MichaelDoig]

These portraits are really amazing, going from strength to strength. I'm going to take your advice and work on full figures for a bit, so I can nail proportions more accurately.

Setting goals like the portrait challenge looks like a great way to track progress/victories :d

I look forward to portrait 50-100

[MihaiRadu]

Yep, you're on fire! The traditionals are at a level that i haven't seen in UNARTE and the digis are improving fast. I see what Stockholm did for you, and i am sad&mad that i wasted my time here, and i still do. I am you without the stockholm and the awsome drawing buddies and with full emo mode on.

That being said, please don't forget me when you'll work at Bioware on Mass Effect 4. I wanna have a famous friend! : O

And.. the best and only crit evar: smiley earring + bloodstain = watchmen = luv. Y U NO DID THAT

[Dorutza]

CitadelIndigo - Omg it will take time for me to get to number 50 xD ... and 100! pfiu! Yep.. it s good to challenge and do this stuff! Will get after this in environment + weapons costums and so on : )

enixtm - Wow dude.. thanks,, dunno if i ll have that big chances to work there : P though i want to : )) need to work my butt off to do so! What can i say .. work and don t mind who the fuck is around you.. cuz those people.. are a waste of energy... i lost years cuz of some retards... now i m back to my old self.. the way i was when i was 15 : ) in the mood to draw and work with this! Keep your self on positive thoughts ONLY.... don t go down! if you ever need help.. and so on.. call me : )



Anyways! today i did a collab with a friend.. thought her some stuff in PS and so on : ) And after that continued on my parrot! Took a photo of my room mate Adelin And well just changed it and added his favorite food in his mouth : D

I give you MOMO! : D Om nom ! and a tutorial : \

THUMBS UP!!!!
Maybe try to get a bit more structure or texture into his wings and body. Just for the feel of feathers (you know what I mean)
But thats just my 2 cents and hopefully you don't mind!
