it's not going to be finished tomorrow, at this speed maybe not this year
wasted all morning testing how I could paint/draw it, it's going sketchy
oh, and no jack at all
if you read the story, jack is a thieft and a murder, such a child story haha
-
Wonderful!
-
So true... All these kids stories from back in the day are so odd when you think about it.
-
Too bad, it looks awesome!
-
It's going somewhere
I think I'm not gonna render it, instead, i'll do more linework with just a soft plain colors with gradiation. :l
peasant outfit is peasant
-
played around too much as I have no process yet
-
This is coming along really well,
-
passed to the next thing, I was kinda blocked in last one :l
-
hard part
-
**
- Wow!**
-
love these, you are so good. Apsara looks great.
-
Can't do it as I want, my feels r worse than hers haha
might restart from lineart as I have a disability to keep working over things already there, this does not happen me while I draw, just when I paint
atm I feel like I need brain surgery haha
-
OMG we are the opposite, i can't draw but paint, line work makes me go crazy, I get lost in lines but i love lines. Confused haha
-
Wonderful!
-
droped the coloring, went back to older file to take back values ha ha, will try to color after I end the paint totally in grayscale and then watch a tutorial before trying to color so I stop doing experiments and wasting time gaining nothin
I need more lights there

Hey Alberto, maybe I can help some here. If you notice the quick paint over I did below, you will see a few things. When I converted your image to greyscale it turned to basically dark on dark which is extremely difficult to pull off. When planning your values try to keep it simple. Think "Is this a light shape on a dark background, or a dark shape on top of a lighter one?" That way it keeps everything clear. I did the quick paint over here and tried to pull out her face some and soften that lighting stripe in the background. It all just depends on where you want the emphasis. John Singer Sergent painted beautiful images with the figure dark and the background light. So that can be done here too. You just need to decide which way you want to go with it.
Hope that helps some... : )
Cheers,
Lee

Thanks you very much! It was brightened already from !http://forum.svslearn.com/uploads/files/1437661186671-values.jpg, and it's now even more, but still need clear value ranges as you pointed out to be readable, the way to pop out the face and the body gotta be stronger, will apply these points, kudos

update
should I push brights on bg or her?
vs
seems that it reads better on second, but gotta do a better layer than that -
it's still really underexposed feeling. I would do a simple 5 value study with no rendering to try and nail it down.
