Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
So I can say what I want about fixing it and that's not good enough? :poly124: @Vig Yeah I saw that tutorial. I really liked the end result but I found it really difficult to follow their process. The current hair minus the color wasn't painted following that, it's a composite of actual hair photos, because when I tried to… -
Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
I've only been trying to add wrinkles where stuff would make it wrinkle but I'll look out for that. Cant wait to get home, do the hair, gloves, then color time. Hair time! I'll be taking tips from here and here Ugh. While the end result looks shown in the tutorial really good, I find the tutorial itself incredibly… -
Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
Spent the better part of today struggling along with the hair tutorial. I'm taking a break from it for now so here is my progress so far, completely uncleaned up. Like the tutorial says I am working at a much higher resolution then will be on the final texture. I'm including the texture map as well here because on the… -

Sweet... The drama's back... (The following is an effort to help you keep your threads railed) I agree that you're too sensitive to critique and defensive of your mistakes, as most artists are. This thread and 2 others are full of it. No one is putting words in your mouth or telling you what you think, they're restating a… -
Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
I know you're going to take this the wrong way but I'm going to say it anyway... The hair looks like a mix between meat and rusty metal. Even if you don't go to the trouble of creating hair planes and arranging them you should follow the painting portion of that tutorial. Also check these out:… -
Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
The contrast in your hair is pretty extreme (and the skin too, actually). Consider the global direction of the light and try to get the top of the head to be a little lighter than the bottom. You want to think of the bigger shape first (roughly spherical) and make sure that reads clearly without things like highlights and… -
Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
Yeah I know what you mean. The tutorial by that lady says to do it at a much larger resolution then you actually intend to show it at, and it's been going pretty well for me so far but you're right when you said I'm basically painting each individual hair, not really large broad strokes or anything. When you say upper… -
Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
Decent tutorial, though his end result just doesn't feel like it's pushing it far enough to me, like it could look nicer. Maybe it's just personal preference and 'bad' but I like the look of a strong contrast, without it it just feels like someone threw in a skylight and washed out the artwork completely. I will make it… -
Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
The more sphere less corrugated metal reminded me of THIS art tutorial I use a lot. Useful stuff. I like your version Vig, it's cleaner then mine but it feels sorta too realistic, not sharp enough for what I am going for. It's like the opposite end of the spectrum of mine, I need to try and find a nice middle ground… -
Re: Hand Painted Face -Critique Needed
Hey everyone, me again. I'm still having a tremendously hard time with the hair. Every time I try to paint it from scratch it comes out terrible because I have no idea what I am doing, and all the tutorials I can find essentially boil down to "Step one draw some lines, step two finish it up for photo realistic hair." I'm…
