Behind the mirror
Hello friends, good evening.
For a long time, I've wanted to draw something with a broken mirror effect. I mean drawing it myself, since it's an effect that I think is quite difficult to achieve. To be honest, I've done drawings like this before, but I always used PNG elements to help me. However, everything always looks better when you do it yourself. it looks more natural and fits better with the drawing you're doing. It's not perfect, but I really like the result. I did my best to simulate this “broken mirror” accompanied by a portrait with pale, nostalgic tones. I hope you like it.
Proceso/Process
I made my sketch and began to choose the skin colors, this time using desaturated blue tones and a little turquoise, as well as some pink. For the shadows, I used the same color range, but in darker tones. On a new layer, I began to add more colors to give the face more detail and then began to blend them, creating a more realistic texture. I also painted the eyebrows and eyelashes.
Then I painted the hair black and added some highlights with a pale blue. I painted a cigarette in her mouth using different shades of brown, orange, white, and gray. It was really difficult to paint such a small detail, but I wanted to make the cigarette look very realistic. Then I added a layer of gray and played around with the effects of this layer until it looked translucent. I left a gap where I wanted the crack in the mirror and began to paint the cracks using black, white, and blue. I also drew smoke coming out of the cigarette and, of course, finished by adding some light details to both the cracks and some parts of the face that I wanted to highlight.
