Good evening everyone! My name is Nycto for those of you who don't know me yet. I come to you tonight with another older study, this one being of a cute brunette. Per usual I shall share the final and then show the steps afterwards :).
step 1! Always a loose sketch,
step 2. after some time I find my lines...
step 3 and onward is just painting painting painting till I get it done right! =D
And there you have it! I believe this one took me about 5-6 hours to do this one at the time.
I hope you guys enjoyed the process! Be sure to follow me for lots more Art and tutorials. :)

You really know how to render some luscious lips!

So do I, and that's part of why I appreciate your work
Great process! I love the detail, I could never do anything like that! Keep up the good work@nyctoinc !
Thank you so much @meyerpaintings XD I will definitely keep it up!
Beautiful! The eyes are so compelling and the lips sensual. I love how it twisted and curves.
Thanks for sharing the process too. It looks like the coloring is very time consuming.
yes it most definitely is quite time consuming! =D Its allot of hard work to capture beauty!
