Hugs and Kisses

Practicing realism (or semi-realistic, looking at how this turned out...)

A portrait of my friend Mel, although she's probably tanner... she's so prettttyyyyyyyy... I hope I didn't butcher her prettiness with my inexperienced digital painting abilites... TT__TT

The lipstick kiss/stain thingie was fun drawing though If worse had come to worst, I would have copy and pasted from google lol... XDD

(Mel! Your face was a valuable resource for learning... Thank you for your sacrifice and I apologize if it doesn't look like you or if I ruined your beautiful-nesssss by trying to recreate it TT______TT..... I was bored and I had nothing to do... I'll finish your other picture laterrrrr....)

Argargargargggg..... I need more references...

Done in photoshop
Face belongs to Mel
Took 4+ hours (trial and error... sorta... not really...)
