Self-portraits are weird.

For my first real digital painting in Tradigital, we had to do a self portrait that reflected an aspect of us (public or private). As a fan of parody and genre-based work, mine is about Star Trek cosplay and digital work spaces (I wish I had a cintiq).

quick update/preview

I was in Chicago for an all day Saturday trip thanks to Megabus and CCS Hall Council and the people that signed up for the event. so now I'm playing catch-up with lots of work to cover and I plan to update this blog eventually.

besides that, here's 2 images from my fig 2 self portrait assignment. The charcoal was hard to do with the mirror pose and lighting. I then cropped the shot and adjusted my head position so it'd be easier to mirror paint. The lineart photo was taken at an angle, the work is not actually slanted back as you see in here (i will post a better photo later). 80s bike chick= me. :D
