Hi fellows. There's some time I don't post anything here... So I decided to make something simple, just to practice. I took a photo of a dear friend i have and start painting her on Photoshop. Here are some pics of progress:

Thanks for your comments, fellows!
Well, I've made some corrections on skin texture, hair shadows over left eye, and used some custom brushes to help me to break skin's specularity a bit.
Unfortunately, the image size doesn't allows me to make further corrections... So I must stop here.

When I showed this for my friend she became really, really happy... So I believe this piece has already made what I expected from it. ;)

It's time to start another piece, then.

Wow, beautiful job on this. I just love the way you've painted the hair, seeing the progress of that is really useful too, thank you! The wetness of her eyes is done just right too. Fabulous stuff!
