Final on the Face challenge

So, here it goes.

Think I've lost the drive on it, so I'm gonna stop here so I don't ruin it. :)

  

Here's where I stopped on Thursday, the only thing I changed from that was darkening the hair towards the bottom so the focal point didn't go too much there. And blurring the background.

Further on the Face anatomy and expression challenge


Started to tighten the drawing up a bit. For some reason the initial stages of the picture, like getting the shapes right, for once didn't take an eternity, but getting the details right does. It's usually the other way around. Might be because I am starting to get used to my own face with all the self portraits lately...

Anatomicae; Face anatomy and expression WIPs

Soooo... I wanted to do Anatomicae this time around... And I thought I'd give myself a challenge, and I did. :P




Where I am currently at:




I realised that I have to work with a mirror, since I needed help from husband to take ref pics, and he doesn't know how to operate my camera. And holding an angry expression while working for what will prolly become hours and hours is just not happening.... :P I took some horrible no make-up pictures, I'll show you just one, and that's the nicest. Disclaimer: I usually do not look this dorky... I hope.



And here's some progress shots...


And the first screenshot of current work posted in the challenge thread:
