Taylor Swift Portrait with detailed creation Process

Hi!
Again not posting for several months this portrait was done around July but I guess I was too busy to put myself to post this here in PeakD, The subject needs no introduction xD who doesn't know Taylor Swift, you may like or dislike her but you've definitively have heard from her in some form or way.

So here bellow is all the detailed creation process for you to snoop maybe learn something, I hope you like it :3

Technical Info:
Digital Portrait painted with Clip Studio Paint Ex v2
3543px square Canvas at 300dpi

First thing is to trace some lines from the original photo in order have guidelines for painting over it later, it might look kinda messy but that's because I included lines for where the light or shadows were the strongest.

Starting with the paint over, getting those blue light blocks in the right places.

After some hours of blending the face starts looks good but still a lot to do, specially the hair was quite difficult.

Almost there, now comes the cleaning process and fixing little details here and there.

At this stage it's pretty much finished, only needs to get that Watercolour paper texture applied and my signature to call it as complete.

And Voila!
Happy New Year to everyone! ✨🙌🥂🍾

I'll post again next year hehe, not sure how many months till that though xD
