Today (and also lately) I've been only focusing on improving my coloring. I'm not happy with the "line art" from this picture. I tried to do it as fast as possible to spend more time on coloring. This took me around 1 hour and 20 minutes. The lineart-sketch took me around 20 minutes, but I tried to go for 1 hour on the picture...but it wen't over abit. Anyhow, it's no excuse because I should be able to do the line art better. However, there's two people in the picture so the time to create this doubles. I'm not that quite happy with the coloring, but I feel that i'm able to have more control than before. It's interessting how saturated skins usually are. For some strange reason the shadows on the skin are red and saturated. Also something I've been taking notice of lately is that the make up people use affect the colouring too. It's like I have to adapt to the make up people used.
When it comes to the guy's eyes, i'm note sure what I could have done more to give them more dimension. I painted his eyes incorrectly, it's like they're flat eyes but the human eye is more round. I don't know if i will blame my colouring skills on that or my lineart skills. Maybe both. I feel that I have more control of women's hair nowdays, but men's hair is still a problem for me.
