You're bored / you got some spare time on hands? You want to sharpen your painting/drawing skillZ? Here's your chance to paint/draw using a reference pic and take a look at how other Sijun members work! Chances are we could all learn from each other, so here's the deal:

PAINT/DRAW this chick:

Try to capture her face expression - and don't forget the coffee. If you're really good you might make it look like those old style advertisements from the 40s/50s.

This ain't no contest - it's just for the fun of it. ENJOY!

I think you overdid her nose a tad, pal... And her lips need some overwork. Look at he eye brows, they're not curved down but going straight up... Hmm I guess you're on the right way. Keep on adjusting.

Regarding my attempt, well, I'm more into cartoon/comics anyway and my frickin' scanner's broken. This thread is meant to be a coop of the most talented painters and beginners who post every day in the g/f forum - thought this could be interesting. Hey, RoundEye, care to get goin'?

this is pretty old, and doesn't even relate to the thread, besides the fact that it is natalie portman!! haha i say

Eric Drobile · Posted: Mon Jun 24, 2002 9:17 pm

I've got a better idea. Lets turn natalie portman into a monster.

zak · Posted: Mon Jun 24, 2002 10:13 pm

the reason a couple of them don't look as good as they could is because the colour on the uh things coming out of the nose is brown instead of a pinkish colour.
