My best friend’s kids at the beach. Loose sketch using a medium quality photo reference picture.
Process:
1. Gridded the reference image
2. layed down mid tine using big soft photoshop default brush with opacity set to 100%
3. dropped in blurry profile of the faces. big soft brush @ 60% opacity.
4. detailed out dark values using smaller soft brush @ 40% – 80% opacity.
5. blocked in hair with smaller soft brush @ 40% – 80% opacity.
6. added highlights to faces & hair with soft brush @ 40% – 60% opacity.
7. detailed out dark values in the hair using smaller soft brush @ 40% – 80% opacity.
8. applied photoshop texture “texturizer” filter.
9. applied photoshop sketch “water paper” filter.
