Description
I guess I reached my limits in terms of the oh-so-blah classical portrait. But I love doing them, it's like my second nature and the best way of relaxing for me. And it's slowly becoming a tradition of mine - one pretty actor per yearI started it as a try on a few tutorials about the underpainting technique in Painter, but ended up doing it my way anyway. Used plenty of various brushes, a crappy reference photo for cloning and correcting errors, a texture from *hibbary , and a few photos and paintings for the colour palette (completing the colour palette before you start painting really helps a lot).
Hope you will like it
Tutorial based on it: [link]
Aaahhh, for people who seem slightly confused - Jesse Spencer is an Australian actor and musician, recently best known as Dr. Robert Chase from the brilliant medical drama "House M.D.".

*is reminded of the day she fell in love with the doctor... damn Aussie doctors named Robert Chase who are played by damn Aussie actors named Jesse Spencer, why do they have to be so damn sexy???*
This is fantabulous. Seriously. I am not saying that just because I love the guy. This is as realistic as a photograph.
*thinks she should shut up because she is losing the ability to form coherent sentences...*

Dzięki
Początkowo mój niecny plan zakładał namalowanie całej ekipy, ale ja chyba za leniwa na to jestem. Zreszta House'a namalowało i rysowało juz tyle ludzi, że moja wersja nie wnosiłaby niczego szczególnego. Poza tym to przekraczałoby mój roczny limit aktorskich portretów

Thank you
Unfortunately I didn't think of saving the progress, because it was rather spontaneous and I was experimenting a bit myself. But I will remember to do one next time
