I started to draw a much more detailed portrait on A3, using mainly blues and purples to highlight the hair and skin. (I've also added a few piercings just to give the image more character...)
After sketching the face I painted it in watercolour, using lots of layers to build up a base.
I then used colour pencils to gradually build up more, using a light skintone pencil to blend together the blues, purples, pinks and light yellow.
I've definitely enjoyed working on this but it's taking a long time and can prove to be frustrating at times - especially the hair!
Can I also say I love seeing the transformation when I add the colour pencils...
