Lady In Red - Painting Process
#67
Painting a kung-fu lady, check out the step by step process below.
I start with the darkest areas or contours to establish the base and then just fill in the shading. This way it's easier to quickly get the proportions and basic shading in. Painting is more about abstracting what you see and I found this to be the best method for me to see shapes and forms and indicate them easily.
Figures in movement are a bit tricky because you're dealing with getting the movement right, on top of getting anatomical proportions to look correct ... and clothes add to that complexity as well. I'm mostly indicating shadows in the first step. I use lines for this, some smaller areas I cover with a patch of dark color.
Clothing is one of those things that is always hard to do , because you have a lot form changes, you have to think about how would an area stretch or wrinkle. Worked on getting the lighting right and fixing some proportions here and there, adding those finishing touches.
What do you guys think?
