WARNING! Nudity involved in this post. If you don’t want to see that, then turn back now.
I don’t like drawing another person’s artwork. That is just a major no-no for me. I don’t know why. But I love fanart! So, I compromise.
This post is just to show the steps I take when creating artworks. There is much more to it than just grabbing a reference photo and copying it on paper.
(This may turn up to be a collaborative piece, but we will see how the beginning goes before I say for sure)
If you would like to see the result of the manipulation, open the link below and click on the image. I have hidden it, just in case there are kids looking over your shoulder.
Model reference
Hair reference
Cape: Halloween costume from my daughter. I told her to stand just like this model and I took a photo. It worked perfectly!
Clothes: Actually painted on…
This is just the beginning of a larger project. I have one smaller work to complete before I put the pencil to the paper on this one.
More updates to come later!
