Sepia Girl

[Grub]

I thought I would share this image, though I didn't intend it to be anything when I began it. She started off as a rendered head model which was exported as a bitmap, just to test out some hue changes in photoshop, but then decided to re-import for smugding.

Excellent image Grub! this is all done smudging? I would never have thought of using it for something like this. You should explore this technique more, it has great promise.

Wonderfully done Mr. G... :tu:
Not only a tremendous expression, but totally non-computerish...I love your 3D work, and the stuff you can add in 2D technique blows me away!!

Very nice! Turned out great! The bald version reminds me of the girl in the first Star Trek movie. :)

MAN!!!

Even the straight model in grey is some of the most beautiful modelling work I've seen!
Wonderful, G-Man...And that doesn't cover it at all!

Out of :tu: , the many!

The first picture looks like the actress Mira Sauvino (spell?). She was in Mimic. First rate stuff!!

Nothing much to add by now - just to say I echo all the above sentiments. Excellent work. :tu: :tu: :tu:
