OMG! It felt like ages to get this painting done (approx 35h I guess) _^_ But I’m kinda satisfied with the outcome.
Inspiration came to my mind after listening to the Assassin’s Den podcast with Adrian Hough. As far as I know, both Adrian and Noah provided mocap for their characters, which might explain why I see actors’ facial features in animations. And if you don’t, you must be totally blind

That’s how the whole idea has arisen.
I also wanted to give it a 18th century painting’s feel (like paint cracks, but pic is too small to notice them)
I’m working on Noah’s portrait in Connor’s outfit too (:

Anyway it looks awesome XD
Jedyne co bym mu jeszcze dała na twoim miejscu to mniej gładka twarz. Nie chodzi mi o same zmarszczki, ale o hyymm, faceci tego typu nie mają tak gładkiej skóry
Anyway thanks (:
Ludziom - laikom się wydaje, że ach diżital to takieee prosteeee, bo na kompie wszystko łatwiej. A tak naprawdę tu dopiero trza znać różne kruczki jak uzyskiwać faktury różnych powierzchni.
I think you should just simply practice, without it, nothing will develop your skills.
