    Reference Photos Wanted

    So, I would like to do some more fantasy portrait practice (see my gallery in my signature or my PF Portfolio thread for examples) -- previously, I used some fabulous PF folks, because its nice to paint real people. I'd like to do some more of this and I want you guys to participate. If you are interested in being turned into an elf or a god or whatever tickles me based on your awesome face, please either send me a private message or post a pic in this thread.

    I can't promise I'll do everyone -- but I can promise you'll have better luck being picked if you send interesting photos. Neat shadows, dramatic light, cool expressions? That'll get my attention. And no, you don't have to be "beautiful" in any traditional way. I think everyone looks cool, especially if you are unique. And yes, I will totally repaint the same people again, if you get me some new photos. (That means you Medusa and Thorson. I like your heads.)

    If you decide to send a photo, you are okaying me to modify your image and you are telling me you own the rights to the photo (so no professional photos please, because the photographer owns those images technically). Also, if you are squeamish about particular mythological critters or deities or you think its heresy or something to be portrayed as one, you probably don't want to play -- since I can't guarantee who you'll be, I'm just going to go with the flow.

    Once I finish one, I'll post the photo and the art in a new thread.

    Can't wait to see your smiling, growling, Mona Lisa, crazy eyeball pictures!

      I can't find it...I also can't guarantee you'll be a wizard, but if you want to post the pic here too, I'll take a look.

          ^ I can see you as a wizard for sure.

          Not particularly interested in being a subject myself, but you should post the ones you've already done, I'm curious to see how they turned out.

            any chance you have a bigger one? I love your face, but this photo is pretty tiny

            Here's the two fabu PF members I painted before....these are from 2009, early in my digital painting career. The painting of Thorson is actually the VERY first completely digital painting I ever made.

              Ok found the original pic that is larger. Not sure if it is to big to UL though.




              Just click the second one and it will show bigger

                      Okay, I'll try adding a photo - totally free hand with this... I can be a goodie or a baddie, whatever takes your fancy and I'll be fine with that!

                              I hope that the size of my little image is not a problem.... The program just minimizes it.
