Description One of my favorite actresses - Scarlett Johansson. Her face intruiges me! And she's Josh Hartnett's other half *jealousy ensues*

I thought it had been a fair while since I had submitted any actual artyness so here's some. Developing on the techiniques I used for pieces like the Jake Gyllenhal portrait, I really like how this work turned out. It's supposed to look so fake
Be sure to compare it to it's refrence image: [link]

Brushes:
=iceytina for the splatters.
The Rose is from the Visionary Flowers set, I don't know who the artist is who created it but I know it came from DA, possibly Photoshop brushes which I probably converted.
My floral brushset for GIMP

Comments and faves welcome, seasons greetings everyone.

wow, this is a really cool take on Scarlett! I love all the extra stuff you've added above and beyond the normal simple reproduction

Vilkommen!

Scarlett Johannson is one of the most beautiful actresses ever and the way you did that picture was just amazing! I know it's not much, but you should check out the pic I did of her, if it's not too much. ^_^

Thanks, I could do better with the picture though, and you've kind of got me thinking about doing another. Maybe one day!

I took a look at your drawing and left you a comment

i must admit i have a major crush on scarlett so already i love this
i think if the hairline was a bit more defined it would make the effect you might have been going for
the splatter and rose are also great
love it anthea

Yeah I have some kinda secret obsession with her too. Have you seen "A Good Woman"? I loved that movie, I bet you would too. Thanks for the fave, I really appreciate it

I like the way her hair almost melts into the background, like she's risen to life off of the page of a story somewhere. I also adore the contrast with the flower. I'm not sure I'm a fan of the splattered paint, but in whole it all does look really nice together

Very very nice: *fav*

There is a little bit of a disconnect between the neck and the rest of the body (probably doing to the fact that the clothes are so dark and the skin is so light), but it is by no means glaring and now that I look at the source pic it's there too. Would love to see the hair brought up to the same level of detail as the rest of the piece.

Awesome!

Thank you very much for the fave, and even more for the constructive comment and useful perspective. Hair is my enemy, I need to find some good dotty brushes to help me with it but I cant really be bothered looking that hard It's rare if I do a piece like this.
Thanks again for the fabulous response, it means a lot to me.

Very nice, I really like the smooth airbrushed look that her face has. This kind of style remind me of you a lot actually , maybe because one of your ID was like that before, or the MySpace, or something...

surfing-ant In reply to sleepykid [2006-12-21 05:51:45 +0000 UTC]

yup I had an old ID that had a smoothed out face and stuff
I like the effect too, and its such a difference when you look at the refrence image
