Photo Manipulation

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!
