My first human deer. Was very exciting. I had trouble with the anatomy around the neck and head. I wanted it to look possible. Used a ton of reference to get it just right.
Wanted to create someone elegant. She is the type who is reserved and calmly takes in her surroundings. Was going for a geisha look.
I really enjoyed painting the body. Added about 6 different colors/layers to get the effect. I had trouble deciding what her hair would look like. Saw some tribal art and was inspired to make it in large strands.
Added some quick trees so you could tell where she lives and add a bit of interest. The yellowing was to make it look like old japanese art.
Right now pieces I've done are very flat. Will start steering away from this.
Next time would like to create a piece with more story and mood. Need to work more with lighting as well.
