Well, fleshing out a face without copying a photo is fun. Instead of relying on one pic, I'm looking at general lighing and features on various models, and culling them together into my drawing, all the while editing them so that they still hem to the vision I have in my head. But as I get into the technique and the drawing evolves, it's hard not to let the drawing become what the marks make it. For example, right now it's not at all what I had in mind but I love the feeling of Outcast artist Paul Azaceta's work that I feel it resembles. And I need to balance turning it into an homage of that style versus creating what I still see in my head...
