New Project...Lia





Last year I made a praying girl for my oldest daughter Angelina. I wanted to make one for my youngest daughter Lia. I started working on this. I decided to use an image of Lia rather then just a generic angel/girl. Here is what I have so far (I am only a few hours into it right now) I took a picture of Lia watching TV (It was the only way I could get her to sit still long enough for a profile picture) what I got was a 3/4 view instead of a profile so I went with it. I took a separate pic of her hands in a prying position as reference and added it the drawing. I took the picture of her hands from the wrong side but I just reversed them when I drew them out on the wood. Anyway, any critique is much appreciated. I stink at making eyes but I think these will work, I can't figure out how to do eyes the right way but oh well practice makes perfect, or as close to perfect as possible.
Thanks for looking!
