4/14/15 - FE Portraits continued

So I think this one came out quite a bit better!

Of course, it's far from perfect, but I think it's a step in the right direction and it certainly looks more presentable. I think I either need to stylize it more or adhere more strictly to realistic anatomy because I'm falling in a weird middle ground but those are issues I feel much more comfortable addressing. Before my biggest concern was making things look well presentable; I was trying to avoid the sloppy factor. While this piece still looks rough around the edges I feel much better about cleaning this up than some of the older pieces. I know how I would do it whereas I got lost trying to fix it in the others.

Overall I thought this portrait series was very helpful - I found a middle ground between the styles of the artists I followed and I think I can build on it to create a really solid foundation for myself!

Until tomorrow!
