Sam - a portrait

[amberdreams]

I've been trying to do some digital painting, using PaintTool Sai and Photoshop. I have no idea what I'm doing or how far to take it but I kind of liked the way this turned out in the end so I stopped here.
Two teaser details

The version I settled on is Sammessiah, an early birthday pressie for monicawoe for Monday.


And here's a version with 'normal' eyes.


Not digital realisim, but I don't really think I want to go that way. Besides, there are already some superb digtally real artists that I could never compete with so...

All concrit gratefully received! I realise this is still a bit of a cross between my usual coloured line illustrations and a proper digital painting.

Love 'em both! (though possible those gold eyes are slightly more gorgeous…;D). I don't know how to talk art .../o\ Just…wonderful! I really love the style.
