Trying Again to Draw a Vector Painting in GIMP
I have always wanted to draw but it seems that I can't really grasp how to draw well.
In my first and second attempts to paint my own portrait, I've realized that I have a lot of things to learn. So here I am, trying again to draw using GIMP.
In the future, I hope that I can write something about how I improved through time. I've taken into account all the suggestions and tips I've read, watched or were given to me.
Here is the filtered product! I used my favorite sparks paintbrush in the background. Then, I used PicsArt for the filter.
Meanwhile, below is the not-filtered one.
As you noticed, I covered my nose with a vine brush. I don't know how to draw a nose :'( I've searched but I really sucked at that one (haha). It was the same thing with hands and fingers. As a child, I used to hide the hands behind. I guess I really have to face those things now as I'm set to improve this skill.
THE PROCESS
At first, I started with the face. It looks quite decent to me.
For now, this lips is all I can offer. :'D
Next is the neck.
Of course, the hair looks pasted. :( The other arm is missing :'D
Overall, I think this is much better than the previous ones so I'm quite happy.
Here's the original photo.
this is really cool.
Thank you!
