I feel a bit stuck at the moment and I haven't had the time to paint, but I hope to be able to finish it some day
Excelente. Un honor visitarte.
I'm having a small break from that painting because I feel kinda stuck, but I hope to be able to finish it some day and make all the improvements that you suggest!
Yes, it looks like a basic 3D-Rendering. Maybe if you ad some texture, some 'visual dirt' to the surface of the sculpture to make it look more like stone the effect will be better.
And a sidenote: Yes I know, it is like this on the original as well, but it's more that 'blind eye' that creeps me out! Maybe that goes away too, when the drawing looks more like a drawing of a sculpture.
But then again: Nice work!
I plan to try and add some more texture to it when I have gotten the right shades and highlights... I would want the face to look more human, and the hat to look more fabric like. I always over blend it, and yes, I have used the reference picture a little bit too much to make it look human, since it is in fact a ceramic bust... Still something I struggle with. I always make things too smooth.
But I read a Marta Dahlig tutorial about how to paint perfect skin and she had some tips & tricks for darker skin tones. I hope to be able to make it look a little bit more realistic. Also, I think that I might be able to make it look better if I colour it. Let's see how it turns out. I am still learning, but I am pretty pleased that I made it look, if not realistic, then at least quite nice.
Thank you for your comments, it is really nice to get feedback. I will think about them and try and put them into my final piece
