Re: Lady From Regensburg

Thanks, Grant. She possesses great character, I'd say.
Tennie...really enjoyed looking at your treatment and
Ol'B, heavenly.

...and if I must say, I do not think green is m'lady's colour.

Re: Lady From Regensburg

Low Frequency Even (Script-fu), B/W Pencil (G'MIC), Geo Chaoic Chrome (Impressionist), and some paper texture blending. Normally don't outline my procedure anymore, but recently I regretted not doing so (and had to sort of re-create it; I create at the seat of my pants and rarely do things exactly the same; lol).

Re: Lady From Regensburg

The lady on the picture looks pretty nice, but oh man, it is so hard to come up with a nice result on this one! After many attempts I gave up... anyways here's one of my renders...

Weird, but good.

I wish you would post some more like this one below Peter. There was one of a guard at a gate and one of a mother and child in similar style also. Your best work IMHO.

Super stuff.

All quite good as expected. Just not enough of the style of the old kitchen.

And I wonder why he didn't post the guard or mother and child. My favs.
