This is fourth digital portrait in the new style. I think this one is short of an step back, because i feel like this one did not came out as good as the 2nd and 3rd one. May be because i like shiny stuff. Those two portrait had really bright colors on the skin. Probably the reason why i like them so much. I did try to use brighter colors on this one but it just kept turning red so I just went with that.
I will try to make the next portraits better.
Used Reference Image for structure and style.
Here are some process shots and descriptions of painting:
Just like all the previous portrait, I took the exact same sized canvas as the reference photo, it was important. Since i am not painting the whole face i need to be careful while drawing facial features. when i draw whole face i have the round structure to put the facial features in, but in this case I short of had to go in completely blind. So taking the same sized canvas was very important. I took the reference photo in my phone and hold it right by the side of where i am painting.
Started with some very rough lines just to mark all the lines and shapes and where what should go.

Then tried to draw some details. So i took another layer and then reduced the size of the brush and did some detail sketching.........

Then i took two more layers and filled them with base colors. Then i used full opacity and draw some shapes for the lights and the shadows.

At first i used the textured hard round brush to try to blend the colors on the skin. After a while i switched to my favorite blending brush and kept painting. I took my time to paint the eyes and eyelashes and the lips.

Awesome post! So awesome we resteemed it and gave it a 100% upvote, including our Steemauto fanbase. Follow @theresteemer5000 for a higher chance to be resteemed and upvoted more often.
Very cool @masummim50! I'll definitely be following :) Also you should check out the OnChainArt Community! I think your work would fit right in there.
thank you, i have never actually used steempeak. i am not familiar with the functions of that page. when i click on the pen sign, there's a option for choosing my own blog or ocd or onChainart.... How exactly does that work? Below in the comments, ocd gave a link to beta site of steemit. I just tried to post there. there are so many front ends, i get confused of where should i post..... which platform would be the best?
I know, it's all really confusing haha. For you as an artist, I'd say Steempeak is the best. They have the best UI/UX and visual layout. Both Steemit.com and Steempeak have Beta sites where the newest feature to Steem, Communities are live. So right now, for the best experience posting art, I'd say use the beta.steempeak.com site.
Once there you can post in Communities like OnChainArt or OCD. OnChainArt is exclusively for visual art and OCD is a more generic Community for anything as long as it's original content.
If you post on either of these beta sites you post will still show up on the non beta sites. It's still all just one platform, only multiple interfaces to access it. Hopefully that helps :)
thanks. that helped.... i will try those next time....
