hey guys!

this is my first wip posting .. for this piece, i've already chalked out a concept but with a help of a celebrity photo .. i.e. gwyneth paltrow .. i always collect lots and lots of reference images for my upcoming artworks and so, as i was browsing through all of them, i came across her photograph!
for which i quickly sketched out a concept ...



plus..here's the reference image

been busy with the ear and some more facial shading ...
in fact .. the ear still needs more shadow and color ..
i've also added a 'cut' layer for the skin and metal separation ...so that i should add skin details only in those regions where needed ..


more updates soon

hey guys! i'm back!


pretty much a critical update .. mainly setting the background to see how everything works with it ...
as mentioned earlier, i've only painted what's necessary ..i.e. the skin and metal layer .. all the main shading details will come up soon ..
i've also made a change with the mask (cut) layer for the breast section and added some specularity near the nose section .. you'll also see i've given her an ear lobe ..
in the reference image, she doesn't have it ..
i may plan to add an earring of some sort .. lets see how it works later on ..
