My Little Chocolate Drop!! LOL! I was missing infants from my portfolio and this seemed like a good idea to me!

My exercises with doing these spots is working! It's helping me speed up my PSD painting speed. Which is great!! When it comes to freelance a limitation I had to recognize was that sometimes painting in Photoshop was just taking me way, way, way too long! I figured painting a bunch of individual items would help me lock down a process and help me speed things up. Which is much better than me guessing my way through every item I render. So far the only consistent thing I've done in every PSD image is the brush that I use. But right now I'm much, much more comfortable with what I consider to be my technique. So, that's a good thing!!

I hope you enjoy the image! I had a lot of fun doing these. The image I originally scanned in was of a white child and his facial structure was different. I like the evolution of him. After a certain point he felt like he had a personality so I gave him a name, Geoffrey!! (Don't call me strange!!) Meh I guess you can if you like! So don't be surprised if he shows up later in other illustrations. I need subjects to show in multiple images to show consistency and Geoffrey has made the short list.

Enjoy!!!

*****REVISED*****
I took the advice of my fellow Deviant and some of my co-workers and friends and reworked little Geoffrey some! Let meknow what ya think!!
