Wicked

Our most recent art assignment was dramatic lighting. Of course I forgot every single idea I had had for it. I took about a hundred pictures using my sun lamp and everything, but ended up finding this in my reference photo file.

I spent a lot of time shading the folds and parts of the pants, only to remember this thing had to be dark. The reference picture (the darkened one, not the original) had everything on the pants black. So, I had to go and color black over my carefully shaded bits. I had meant to scan the shaded layers onto here to show my progress, but i forgot to bring it home, then I was told to darken it... *sigh*

So, it's a self-portrait, and the photo is in my stock gallery here:
