Steve Argyle! (Personal favorite)

While you wait, there are a few exceptional books that help you try to create fantastical illustration. They really helped me out.

I’m so glad you like the idea! I just sometimes think “Wouldn’t it be helpful if…”

I kind of feel like I’m in the art cave, so unknown to the world. Living under the art rock. You know, it’s hard to speak the language if you don’t know it.

A hundred thanks!!

I really would love to see some of your 3D art, rendering like that is really enchanting to me and it seems so modern and useful.

Share, how did you get your job doing art? What got you in the door? I beg you!

 

Cheers,

The hair around the eye is distracting but if you really look at the photo, the shine on it makes it less intense. Maybe if the tone used for that hair was lighter it would be less of a distraction seeing as there are some stark, major contrasts between the loops of hair and even the background. If the values were closer together, perhaps to be more similar to the hair that’s in the light, those loops can still be in the image but not pose quite so much of a distraction as they do.

If you look at the eyes, and the greatest amount of contrast there, it’s clear that’s the focus of the drawing.

Does that make any sense?
