Colour Study

Just a skin colour study I did yesterday morning and cleaned up a bit. Picking skin tones is getting a little easier for me since discovering Pheberoni's neat trick here pheberoni.deviantart.com/art/r…
Only I colour pick from multiple photos because it's more fun that way.

I find unnatural hair colours surprisingly difficult to paint compared to natural hair colours, even with the help of StarshipSorceress's colour palettes, so I'll need to practice that a bit more.

I'll most likely do a few more of these in the next few weeks as they only take me about an hour and a half. _{Until I start doing hair and eyes and crap.}

Background texture by the wonderful cloaks
And a noise filter on the skin because texturing takes far too long for a simple colour study.

I actually saved jpgs of this along the way so I can post a process/step by step of this later, if anybody wants, that is... _{you probably don't care though do you? That's fair enough too.}
