The Road to 10,000 Hours by Volen CK

Volen CK - "Hey everybody. Back in 2013 I decided to teach myself to paint and draw. Since then I've been working each and every day. My progress has been slow, but it has been consistent. In this vid I want to share some of my progress, major lessons about learning in general and how you will change as your art develops. You can skip up to 15 minutes in to just see some of the work I've done over the years. I hope this helps give you some perspective and inspires you to keep working."‪#‎freelance_talents‬

*) - Kristina Gls - "My goal was to imitate the crystal in a variation to get the overall impression, used mainly 2 brushes, 1 textured beneath and then 1 basic brush with just shape dynamics for sharpness. 1 par appears off but unsure what to do about it. Took a bit more than an hour, another 30 min for initial copy of the image. I tried lasso way with gradients, but it was too flat."

*) - Thank you all for the feedback  here is update. First I did all sharp edges some, but I prefer the a bit more organic one on the right, what do you say? This was even more fun than the first part  Played around with color a bit to make it more magical. I didnt change any textures tho to not overdo it. So any C&C are very welcome  (which one do you prefer)

This is a character design portrait lesson painted from imagination. The lesson will teach basic working methods in Photoshop, color for realistic skin under overcast light, character design of a personality, and general approach of painting a portrait in Photoshop. This is a 15 minute video with image file of the painting included."
