When you need the right reference photo, you do what you gotta do.

That is awesome! I love to see the reference behind the shot. Now I will always see your face in Will Denison's!
this is hilarious, I admire your ambition! :)
Aw man, lol, so good!
That's how Norman Rockwell did it too! Works for me! Dinotopia is amazing. I also liked reading about the use of the oil wash on the treehouse piece. I'd like to learn more about that.
Did you model Will's face after anyone from real life?
And then the doorbell rang...
There's so much to be learned from even these brief posts: The slight adjustments you made in going from reference to final - the amount of shoulder and arm in the final, for example.
Also, thanks for including the links to earlier posts (e.g. the one her on uses for refrigerator columns). Now that your blog has such a history and, as far as I know, isn't searchable, it's great to be pointed back to some of these older gems.
Love it!!
You hired Sir Paul McCartney???
Funny thing about this is how little it appears you really followed the photo. Like it was just a pair of hands holding that ladder, so to speak.
This is so cool :D
Love how you use pretty much anything if it helps you get a grip on the artwork you want to produce
