Description my personal painting master piece
as you (hopefully) see its the Elf from "Lord of the Rings" after watching the video like 5 time's and have some photo's as guide i made this
it was 3 days of work made in ps7 with Wacom

and for all the smart asses no this aint a filter or anything like it if you can find a filter that can do this tell it would safe me ALOT of work
best way to explain how i made this is looking at one of these tut's [link] under the portraits section
i am making a tut of my own to will be finished soon (i hope)

The only thing I don't like about this work is that it makes her look older.

deathscout [2002-09-01 13:15:06 +0000 UTC]

nice, but i think the face blending could be more .... well, less noticable i guess, more smooth/blended get me?

anyway, nice work

good work. but when it comes to the Eldar, she looks too old and wrinkled and used up. she may be a thousand years old, but she doesn't look it. nice work anyway, perfect lighting.

I admire the skills your painting had demonstrated, xecho. If you had not told us that this was a painting, then I swear it must've been the real thing. Keep up the good work

This is bad ass....for the record the models name is Liv Tyler....she's Steve Tyler from Aerosmiths daughter and damn was she fine in this movie....as soon as i saw this i knew who it was exactly you truely captured her essence......beautifully done....but i agree the chin and some of the skin could look better...and Seafairy is an AWESOME aribrusher so totally take her advice~L~


Anyhow....im gonna this....because its truely remarkable....

Great Job

SeaFairy [2002-08-26 18:38:41 +0000 UTC]

oh, and there are two strange outstands on the chin, you might want to change that btw, I wish I had a Wacom/tablet. I can't afford one.

How much did your's cost?

SeaFairy [2002-08-26 18:37:13 +0000 UTC]

Wow this is really great, but you see the lines too hard from drawing Maybe use a big smudger and wiggle it over those spots to soften the skin and make it look even, or take a small one and smudge it into the left and right directions of each line to soften it. I love how you did her expression and you sure did a wonderful job. I love the eyelashes, and the light on it, that seems so very real

I would especially smudge the nose-skin into shape a bit more (not the profile of the nose, it is great!).

This is a fave for sure

yes did you copy straight from the movie....? I will note. the NZ artists that made the clothing also signed her clothing...... and the ears were also signed as well.......

good choice of person to paint.... as well ..... she has such fine features to paint.

great work.
