This one is a corker! Beautiful

Great work in here tomasis.

Tomasis · Posted: Sun Dec 03, 2006 10:18 am

Capt Fred. thank you! I saw your last work in speedpaintings and LOVE much this, especially the background! want to see more of your genius brain Very Happy

Affected, like this. Post more, dude

*posting even worse crap lol I handle highlights very bad (histogram view quite flattened values from 150-255). I guess I need more patience to avoid the bad habit changing values too fast*

I wasnt in the painting mood last night. And im horrible with portraits, lol. But i want to do more of them. lol

i dont have long hair or a long beard but i wanted to see what. if or what.. if i did..

Tomasis · Posted: Fri Dec 29, 2006 1:15 pm

happy new year

I'm much more busy now, so I post portraits here more rarely than before. I'm also tired of seeing my own face lol

Tomasis · Posted: Sat Jan 20, 2007 10:13 am

just one and even worse. I like the next last portrait how I created. maybe because I'd concentrate well then. it looks like it will take a while before I create more "clean" works with less concentration Razz

Sumaleth · Posted: Sat Jan 20, 2007 2:43 pm

Tomasis: steady improvement, but give yourself permission to smile sometimes. Smile

Sumaleth, thanks. It's difficult to make an empty smile against myself while painting under longer time but I'll try some smile portraits later. I guess it'd be easier in Australia Very Happy

Destinatus, Salenko, welcome
Insider, like this piece
Neff, you did make yourself extra beautiful while you were drunk LOL

Oooh, just the right size. Very Happy

Close up.

Tomasis · Posted: Wed Feb 28, 2007 12:18 pm

midgardserpent, I love this painting very much. it shows how well you handle oils. I feel that I want paint in oils now but im still not ready yet Razz

400th uhh ohh

MidgardSerpent · junior member Member # Joined: 25 Nov 2004 Posts: 9

Tomasis, thanks for the compliment and I'm flattered, but those are just acrylics. Smile

Capt. Fred · Posted: Fri Mar 02, 2007 10:28 am

Midgard, great painting! I love the proportions you've got. How come you're holding a piece of paper but the painting is done on board?

MidgardSerpent · junior member Member # Joined: 25 Nov 2004 Posts: 9

Thanks, it's just a piece of thick cardboard I use as a makeshift palette. I retouched it with some paint splatters on the bottom of the palette so it would be easier to read, but I hadn't added in this version yet. I don't think it's really convincing as cardboard though, I had some trouble with the perspective and seeing the transitions properly to really suggest the subtleties of form and texture of a piece of cardboard. Tricky indeed.

The original size of the painting is like 120 x 80 cm, I cropped off the left window because despite my attempts to unify it with the rest of the painting it was just dead space. But as you can imagine it would still be a bit too large to hold in the palm of my hand. Smile

Here is the overpaint of the pencils from my former post.
Looks like one eye is trying to creep away or something. Very Happy
