taylor swift

Used a reference to make this pic. I tried doing this image last year and after looking at it, i decided that I knew I could do a better job one year later. Out of all the things i could hate myself for, I messed up the date when signing this hahaha, put F20/2010 instead of 2011
damnit. lol
but yes i hope you like this
heres the version from one year ago:

Uncanny Valley

This is really good man. But its to the point where it almost looks so realistic, that its strange looking. Which is by no means a bad thing, its just between a healthy looking human and something that looks prosthetic. Google the uncanny valley and you'll know what I mean if you don't, which I'm sure you do, being the great artist you are.

Overall, awesome work man.

SgtPooter responds:

ive never heard of that term actually, but thats pretty cool, thank you for showing me

i think subconsciously my goal is to hit a high point of realism when i do pictures, as you can see when comparing this with the older version i linked. Its taken awhile, but I see what you mean when bringing up the uncanny valley effect, and from now on whenever i make a picture ill probably be, again subconsciously, more aware to not make it look eerie looking hahaha

thanks for the comment
