I had a little bit of time on Sunday so I started this portrait. I wanted to make something with softer edges (something I still struggle with). It's not really done. I want to come up with a neat sci-fi angle to it like perhaps a bionic chip or device on the side of her face, or maybe even make her some type of alien. I have a lot of commercial projects to get back to, so I welcome any further ideas until I can pick it back up and finish it.

________________________________

Done in photoshop. About 6 hours. No tracing or over-painting. This is not a photo manipulation.
Very loose ref on the face was used (and I even glanced at pics of Patric Stewart- lol). Edit: I looked at this- [link] to begin with as I liked the cold stare but as with any ref I use I made it my own and used it only as a starting point. No, the face was not referenced off of Natalie Portman.

What clinched it for me was the translucency in the thin part of the ears and the perfect assymetry... bravo! Peter.

Reminds me of Natalie Portman in V for Vendetta. I might be crazy though.

It's hard to see how Natalie Portman was not a point of reference on this one. She does look a lot like her in V for Vendetta. Good job anyway! ;)

This is most definitely NOT her but people will draw parallels to whatever they have in their heads. There is nothing I can do about that. *shrugs* Thanks though.
