About the final project for: Digital Painting: Female Fantasy Portraits

Digital Painting: Female Fantasy Portraits

“We have reached the end of the course! Thank you very much for accompanying me. I hope my lessons and tips will help you when creating your own portraits. Do not forget that each project is unique and that what we saw in this course is a base that you can use with your own style. I share the steps you must follow to carry out and share your project: Elaboration of the mood board Choose the references and inspirations for your mood board and composition. Try to keep in mind from the beginning the mood you want your project to have.

Start sketching Start with your sketch and refine your lines. Add as much line detail as you like, as the lines serve as a guide for the color fills.
Add color Layer your color fills and begin the process of generating detail, volume, and lighting on both your character and the background and accompanying elements.
Give details Make corrections in the elements that you think need it. Enjoy working more details that add more charm to your piece.
Adjustments and filters Finally, give it a color treatment and adjust it to your piece. Choose if you want to do it by adjustment masks or with the Camera Raw filter). Then, export your project according to the use you want to give it.
Now share your final project with all of us by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result of your project and the steps that have led you to it.

I also want to invite you to actively participate in the forum, both sharing your progress and asking questions or giving advice and trying to help the rest of the community. I'm looking forward to seeing your progress! I will try to spend as much time as possible on the forum, but please be patient because there will be times when I have professional commitments and it will take me a while to respond. See you in the forum!”

Designer

Fernanda Maya has liked drawing and painting since she can remember, which is the main reason why she became a visual designer. She decided to focus her passion on a more commercial purpose within the creative community. She believes in eclectic approaches as the best way to truly enjoy the process, and that to achieve richer work capable of connecting with others, you must let yourself be infused by numerous experiences, pieces of knowledge, and teachings.

She loves experimenting with different techniques and is currently producing her pieces exclusively using digital programs and her Cintiq. She has collaborated with brands such as Bacánika, Editorial Planeta, and the Luis Ángel Arango Library, among others. She also hugely enjoys selling her portraits and prints, as well as bringing the ideas of others to life.
