The first image shows how I blocked in the image on a new layer. I actually painted it while viewing the outlines, which were on a higher, seperate layer. I again cheated and sampled the colors from the original photograph. |

Almost done. On a new layer, I blended the blocking using the airbrush, never any of the smearing tools. Normally, I stop here, leaving the outlines in the image. This time, however, I thought I'd take it to the next level and turn it into a digital painting with no lines. That and it looked creepy. |

To remove the lines, I began by selecting and coloring in some of the lines where the blocking was jagged beneath. In other areas, like in the neck, I lightly masked out the lines, leaving a trace behind for detail. |

In most areas where a lot of lines were, I had to do a lot of painting-over of the lines. This was done mostly in the eyes, mouth, and hair. It's mostly apparent in the eyes, if you compare this image with the previous. As a very final touch, I lightly scuffed the image in a few places to add some texture to break up the uniform smoothness of the airbrush. This was done with some hommade texture brushes and is only really apparent when viewing at 100% and at the original size, which was HUGE and so I couldn't put it on the website. You can click on the image to the left to see a larger version, however. |
