In which (the) Jamither attempts yet another of his fool-hardy escapades in the hope of becoming a better digital artist...

For those of you who buy the Imagine FX magazines, you should notice that, in each issue, they include several, thorough tutorials that can help you create the desired image. One piece, by the digital artist Hoang Nguyen, appealed to me, so I tried recreating it...

* Let's just say, if it was supposed to look like the original image, it failed. So far I have managed only to work the face, whilst the rest of the body is inanimatedly shaded in with a flat colour. The skin tone is entirely different, and the eye colour is blue, not olive. However, I'm going to ask for permission to show it in my gallery, only to the consent of the artist and DeviantArt (of course), because I want people to see how I have tried to create a life-like digital painting, and how, from being utterly hopeless, I have produced my best piece of work. *

I hope I'll continue to update further,
