PORTRAIT OF A STEEMIAN @modernpastor
Reinhold yabo @modernpastor is a German professional football player, who is playing currently for Red bull Salzburg. I came across him, when he asked for his own portrait in one of my post, where i drew @kaylinart, so i went to research about him.
I was surprised that he was a professional football player, but he's so humble, and write with so much intelligent, something unlikely found in football players, and he does it with so much passion.
I am so happy that i did this for him, and i hope he will love it.
I used a different kind of style, it was one of the first style of portrait drawing i learnt, i am glad it came out well. The fun part is it is quick and simple; just create half of the face, duplicate, kpa,, and you get your portrait.
TOOLS USED: Adobe illustrator
STEPS I TOOK TO CREATE THE ARTWORK
- I started with drawing the outline of the shape of the face with the pen tool, I used #a67758 as the base colour.
- Then i drew the shadows, for the first layer, I used #996340 while the second layer of the shadow I used #8c4f28.
- I drew the highlights, and i used #af8569 for the clour.
- Then i drew the beard, mustache, and the eye brow.
- Here, i drew the eye and the lip.
This is the fun part of this style that makes everything quick, complete and beautiful.
- Firstly, select everything you have drawn.
- Right click on it, an option will pop up, click on group.
- All of it will group into one folder.
Click on the Reflect tool
There will be a pop up. Select Vertical and copy, then press OK
- Use the select tool, and move it till its join with the other half of the face.
Adobe I have been used, but it like photoshop
I used Illustrator, but i think you can also use photoshop.

What's Adobe proficiency?
I think she meant to say " yes, you use Adobe proficiently?"
Oh! I get it now, i was thinking its another app created by ADOBE
I like it. I will try exploring illustrator. I only knew photoshop
Try it, you love it more than photoshop
