Photoshop CS5 - Wacom Intuos 4 Large.
The latest throwaway, a 'Lady who puts you in mind of a clever stage magician; slim, with milk coloured hair and fair skin, large smokey eyes, short stubby fingers and a thin build; she has a mysterious fashion sense comprised of blue and white'.
This one was a little harder, because I was torn between doing a fully body shot, or a closeup. Intellect is best portrayed through focus on the subject's face, and sexuality is portrayed through their body and stance.
The challenge was to incorporate enough of each without overdoing it, and not spend any real time cleaning things up. You can still see the feint notes typed out in the background!
All these that I'll post will be from my girlfriend's brain. Ah bless. Lol.
