Artist's Comments

First try at a digital portrait. You can't say Thom's not funny looking with his crooked nose and lazy eye. That's exactly why I decided to paint him. I'm really satisfied with how this went. Took around 20 hours throughout the week, few hours everyday.

I didn't like how the photo is a little overused but it was at a high resolution. And I still recognize some problems here and there but if I didn't stop I would spend hours just looking over the most minute details. It's kind of funny how I kept changing it as I went along, the WIP is here:

I learned a TON by doing this.

Yeah, I haven't worked on anything as long as this since high school art classes, just shows how much I've been slacking. To hear that it looks like a photo is great, thanks.

For those curious as to how sweet the man did on this work - [link]

Since there are people, like me, who have absolutely no idea who Thom Yorke is.

Wow, I can't believe I forgot to put in the reference I used. I even had the link ready. Here's the actual one I used though, the other has a slight tilt in his head:
