My new portrait is hereπ₯³
In this piece, I attempted to capture complex lighting, experiment with texture brushes, and work on creating an interesting light effect.
One of the challenges was the textures. It was quite difficult to select textures that not only complemented each other but were also soft and easy to work with. I ended up creating a ton of new texture brushes, which, I hope, will soon become a full set.π
I divided the portrait work into four stages - sketch, shadows and lights, textures and initial render, and final render and details.
A timelapse of the process is in the works and will be ready soon.
Do you use textured brushes in your work?
