The Poppy Queen I posted this my Insta but completely forgot about here. ^^;About the piece below:For once, someone isn’t sad!This started off as a style experiment. After ditching the original paint, I spent some time studying Alphonse Mucha, Mamoru Oshii’s Angel’s Egg, and Yla Okudaira’s work for Mariah’s Utakata No Hibi (Ephemeral Days)…which is coincidentally also a portrait. Maybe not the best thing to study from.I wanted to focus on the eyes and thin line work of the face. The gaze stand out so much because of the contrast. It’s simple, but they’re large so it gives weight and notice against the smaller details. I usually put a lot of detail into eyes, but the soft and simple airbrushing works great against the hard lines. -- source link
