Day 20 - Speedpainting #04 - Sunlit kitten

14th July 2012

I was beginning to get worried if I could keep up with this speed painting stuff. I missed two days of it thanks to my obnoxious laziness, but here's tonight's speed painting. 

I had a lot of fun doing this one. I really thought I could stick to the one hour deadline (30 mins seemed impossible), but I exceeded by 20 mins. :( Still need to know how to resist from adding details and keeping it basic. Figured out how bounce light works and how sunlight saturates color.
Enjoy!

I think this is the best one so far coz it very closely resembles the original. Criticism is most welcome. :)

  2. Oh shut up, I'm embarassed!

    Now that I look at this 18 hours later you're right! I never noticed that I could make the dark patches darker. :( And yeah, I kept doing the red highlight again but it was hard to get the right shade! It was so itchy to resist from using the dropper tool!
