I wasn't happy

Posted at 01:39

I went back and painted in a new face and hairstyle for Cassie, I also added a few individual touches to her outfit to make her character stand out more. I also applied looser brush strokes and paid more attention to the lighting but why? Looking at the first paint she looked too long in the face and her outfit seemed a tad drab and un-interesting with no real character bouncing off the canvas. With the new paint her hairstyle is more in keeping with both the fashions of the 80's and modern cuts seen today which are influeneced by that period. I also addded a choker to her neck to break up the large skin area and adding interest to her neck line, other fashion adds are the bra showing underneath the A symetrical top and the stripes on the leather jacket.

I am happy with this design but due to the benefits of layers in digital painting I may go back and try other potential ideas but as I am low on time with tomorrow being the 6th and the oresentation needed to be done I have ran out of time at this point.
