Ray Comfort Digital Painting

Well, I was messing around with "Corel Painter".. cause, well.. there's no other reason other then the fact that I wanted to do some practice on digital painting. This is just one of Ray Comfort, a christian evangelist I enjoy listening to (for those who don't know). The last time I did a digi-caricature-painting.. was back when I painted, "Lar" (another NCN member).

This is the final version. I noticed later.. I could've made his shoulders smaller... cause he's a little guy & also his forehead wider too... But.. I'm too lazy to go back to it. I wanna paint something else. lol.


This is obviously the photo I used for reference.


I figured I could also show you how I started from scratch. I sketched it a few times before I found the "LIKENESS" then the "SHAPE" that I wanted to use. Finally I "BLOTCHED IN THE COLORS" making it look sort of like a sculpture.. and then.. painted over it with more details like, "softening & blending", adding "DEEPER COLORS" & "DARKER SHADOWS". Then, last.. I just added some shoulders, neck details, shirt/buttons/jacket and scruffy-ness to his face & neck.
