Portrait Girl Practice

I was just poking around devART, saw this stock photo of a girl, descided to do a paint of it. Yes, it's photo-referenced, but not traced, not even guideline-traced like the Tuthau pic I did from the Hardy Kruger pic... just eyeballed to show I can eyeball photos as good as anyone else on here. It's just a quick practice, but it turned out pretty nice! Had to add a fantasy touch, of course, me being me. Might port it into NWN and use it for a character. I mean, she could be a lesser noblewoman or a thief or anything really. Painter 6.

I'll probably do some more quickie photo reffed paints... they're fun and it really is good practice. I mean, how can one learn to do photorealism if one has never worked off a photo? Well, yeah, live models are great, but I don't exactly have one lying around my apartment... ;D
