Feeling stumped with commission work...Help please

Karine Beaumier

@Coreyartus I see what you mean, thank you so much!! For both the feedback and the taking the time to modify the drawing to show what it would look like. I will tackle these points in photoshop now. I have seen this image for weeks- a fresh outlook helps and is appreciated. Let's see now what happens!

@Karine-Beaumier I really like what @Coreyartus did in the paint over and I would just add that the shirt is also making her look larger because if the width of the neckline on it. If you give it a smaller v shape I think it'll also thin her out. Good luck!

@Coreyartus Just move all face features (eyes, nose, mouth)toward the chin and probably the it will better.

@carlianne and @Dima-Eichhorn thank you! I started last week with the new fixes and giving it another go today, I can share the results when done. The version published will probably display only half of her though - taking that in consideration when choosing the shapes...ha! Back to work

Here is the final look for those interested to see (only a sneak peek has the album art has not been released yet) Finally having procreate has helped a lot with changing the lines- versus re-drawing everything manually each time. Gamechanger. It was big lesson (I thought I knew lol) To really have a strong structure before going forward. And to save so MUCH time (got it the hard way this time) There are things I would change starting from the start but the client was really happy with the results. I started using the tips from @Will-Terry class, Mixed media Watercolor & Digital which has been awesome ( yay color dodge and separating watercolor from background!! Thank you) @Coreyartus
