Description
collaboration with *srgioBoth of us love to draw Adriana Lima, so we picked out a reference photo and he drew it in pencil. He took a picture of his drawing, and then sent the photo of his work to me to color digitally.
This turned out really differently from the way that I'd planned on doing it. I was going to make it more stylized, with a purplish color scheme. I opened up his drawing in Opencanvas, throwing around realistic colors just to experiment with the brush options. Before I knew it, the coloring was half-done. I ended up finishing the entire piece before he'd even sent me the final version of the drawing. I've been trying to avoid too-literal copies of photos, so maybe I'll try coloring this again with the style I had in mind for it.
I hope he uploads the drawing to his gallery, because it really is beautiful.

The coloring of her little nightie thing is amazing. Very very real looking. The detail of the hair is amazing as well. It looks full and not stringy. A very very beautiful piece! Tres bien!

Sergio hasn't uploaded the drawing yet. He's still tinkering with it. If you have oc, you can view the eventfile though, and see the version I worked with in there. [link]

Your coloring skills are splendid! I really like the model selection. Her facial expression and hair are very striking. The reflective quality in the mirror adds a lot of power to the overall compettion. I'll try to keep my eye on other work done by the guys. (I would like to see it with the original purplish hue.)

So what if it looks realistic...That kind of colouring I'd just love to be able to accomplish! ^_____^ Amazing, but then over 99 percent of the people have already said that. Instead, great blending, highlighting and overall pose.
