final and reflection part 3

this is the image that i used for reference this time i was going to do another interpretation of my first project i will be using only photoshop
i started out by making a blackout of the image. i will be using this as a base
next i filled in the color sections with flat color using a solid brush
i then added some detail to the arms to break up the black

after the initial color i add in the smaller colors mainly thread and cloth


after this i started to build up the chest by adding in a middle color and a white this was to make highlights in the raise
in this step i added in green at a little less then 50% opacity this was to help break down the solid colors
next i added in some bright white on the face and the sode(shoulder pad)
last i added in dark shadows to make the whole thing more 3d
im not finished and wont finish it before class is through but i plan to keep working on this and learn more in the following weeks i plan to finish this up and post progress

after im done with this i will move to making another interpretation of my last project i will probably do master studies so that i can learn more and do a better interpretation of it this time
