Description Study of Vassily Yakovlev's portrait.
[link]

My first try with doing master's studies. I think I can learn much by doing these, so expect to see more soon.
Feel free to comment/critique.

Nicely done. Congratulation

Couple things though, I hope you don't mind: His neck is popping out too much, perhaps because the neck's saturation is too high and his shirt is too dark? In the thumb-size (in my deviantWatch list) I thought there's legs pop-out from his neck. Heheh.
One more thing: Overall, the contrast and hue-shifting in the face area is a bit too much. It's perhaps the nature of digital media where you can't be sure of the monitor's colour accuracy, so you simplify the values relationship. Just be careful when you do that, cause you could make the shape shift from what you originally intended.

I hope it can help you in some ways, cuz that's what I'm trying to do

I've loaded your gallery while writing this and I like what I see. Keep it up

I always value good constructive critique and I'll keep in mind what you said when I'm doing my next work. (another master study is on it's way)

Thanks for encouragement!

Nawet jak na ćwiczenie, to trzeba przyznać, że wymiatasz, ale i tak kiedyś stanę z tobą w szranki w artbattle Tylko chyba to prędko nie nastąpi

Jej, super to wyszło. To faktycznie świetna metoda, by się wiele nauczyć.
Zachowałeś przy tym swoją "malarską" technikę. Twój Yakovlev jest nieco ładniejszy - ma mniej krost xD

Ło, matuchno!... Nie no widać postęp, serio - coraz bardziej :3 Może i nie będę umiała się odpowiednio plastycznie wysłowić - w sumie po porównaniu z portretem zamieszczonym w linku widać tu większą miękkość, ale w pewien sposób zdaje mi się, że (zwłaszcza partie twarzy) tworzą wrażenie mocniejszej głębi. Ogólnie przyjemnie się patrzy, jak ktoś tak ładnie umie A sam styl przypomina mi obrazy naturalistów, o ile się nie mylę

No dobrze... bo ja właściwie jestem w Sanepidzie xD

Miło wiedzieć, że praca się podoba. Nawet jak jest to tylko ćwiczenie.

Wow! My inexperienced eyes say that that is an EPIC piece of art. The detail on the face is amazing (especially the ear, left me gob-smacked.)
A lovely piece, deserving of that epic moustache (LONG LIVE THE MOUSTACHE!!)

Thank you. Though all credit for the epicness goes to Yakovlev.
I was wondering if that ear wasn't rendered too much but I'm glad you like it.
