Description
Commissioned pieceI pulled out all the stops for this one!
I'm trying to think of technical notes that you would like to hear about... This is all Photoshop. I think the tools I use more than anything can be set in this order:
1. Paintbrush (to work like an airbrush with selections)
2. Pen (to create selections)
3. Burn and dodge (I use these in all of my work)
4. Smudge (same with this one)
I used a mouse for everything except the hair and some of the clouds.
Photographer: Alex Gumerov
The background was referenced off of a photo I took at the Temple Of Heaven in Beijing (in broad daylight)

This is really nothing short of stunning! I thought, when I saw the thumbnail, that I was looking at a 3-d render. The smoothness of it all is just amazing. And those boots! They look so three dimensional.

Thank you. I started at the bottom of the figure so it's no surprise that it looks good where I had the most energy.

That's a very good point... or should I say, bad point. I went ahead and editied the hair color - just for you!
