A recent commission I had a lot of fun working on: Nick, one of the main characters of Jennifer Lorenzo’s upcoming book “The Devil’s Eyes”, coming soon at www.thedevilseyesbyloren.com [link]
Aside from the fact Nick is exactly the kind of bad-boy character I enjoy most in either stories or on screen, it was fun painting this one as I was specifically instructed not to stray too far from my own OC portrait ‘Scar Face’; the author pointed out the painting was a source of inspiration as both characters look very much alike.
Notice: You can now download the same brushes used to paint this portrait here: [link]
Very lovely, I really love that soft, airy look you've achieved with the textured brushes. Thanks again for sharing those, can't wait to try them out...though something tells me it will take me a good long while to become as adept with them as this. *aspires to your level*

It's nice. The extreme contrast differences are definatdly working if you want to emphasize that he is sort of sinister. Good blending around the neck. I think that the texture shift from the shoulder to the body is very sudden.

Yes, I noticed that too this morning when I took a look at it. I was looking to have a very sharp line of contrast on the face, but the same effect can't be applied in a flat chest: The shoulder will need just as much light reflection as the lit side of the body.

He is definitely portrayed well. I love it.

I'll have to fix that... eventually
