Emma Watson
Emma Watson by @jfong (Janna Fong)

Another portrait. This time of Emma Watson. I can't wait for the Half-Blood Prince! :3

This took a lot longer than my Aya Hirano picture, mostly because I kept re-coloring her face. I couldn't get the colors to blend like I wanted them to. There's still a lot of smudgy places, but I'm satisfied with it. I'm most happy with how the eyes turned out. Again, I need more practice on hair...

Done in Photoshop. Photo reference used.

Thank you! I'm trying really hard to get out of my comfort zone.

The likeness is incredible, and the work you put into her skin really shows: it looks so soft and smooth! I think you have the right idea with the hair; if you feel you need more improvements on it, maybe experiment with thinner brush strokes, like you did on her eyebrows. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to tell that this was a painting and not a photograph. ^^

Thank you for the tip! I'll have to try that on my next portrait. :3
