It's not really as smooth as youtube make it seems, but blending soft powder pastel is about as smooth as you can get on paper. For the hair it's first dark tone foundation, then mid tone, then light highlights... for the rest/face it's more like mid tone, then dark tone, then highlight. I really prefer to use only oil pastel but they are not blend-able in this case. Hope you guys enjoy the video.

Great work, I love how it looked really awful at first and I scratched my head a bit but then it developed into something beautiful.

That's what makes Glider so great He starts with something super simple, and transforms it into something amazing and beautiful.

amazing as always. Your talent is undeniable.

00:35 compared to the finished result is pretty crazy

I always love what you do with hair to make it seem so real. I don't know enough about art and related terms to really describe it, but seems like everybody can do eyes well and skin seems to be mostly about color tones/blending and lighting, but hair is really detail focused and you make it so good looking.

You rock Glider.
fuck art its a competition if you dont get pissed off when you lose you dont care enough - Idra, on the "art" of RTS games.

Glider your pieces are always incredible! I hafta agree with Ghost151, if you look at 0:30~ you'd think this would be some surreal horror picture along the lines of the Scream and then it turns into something amazingly detailed and beautiful!


Question for you Glider:
I have you seen your amazing portrait art of people and I know you used to at least also offer animal portraits for pets, have you ever worked on scenery and architecture drawings as well?

I still do decent amount of animal drawings. Buildings and scenery are rare but I get requests for them from time to time, they are not extremely technically difficult but a bit time consuming depends on the detail level.

lol I sure wasn't going for surreal horror but I know what you mean. ideally I would do the eyes right after the general outline but it really is easier to lay an overall skin tone foundation first so I don't have to go over individual patches as carefully later on.

Ah coools! I'd love to see one sometime, just for variety and because I'm sure with your skills they will look awesome :D

Your blogs are always my favorite, although it would be nice if you could put a line or two about your model's recent performances/most known performances for context. That suggestion aside, thanks again for the great art!
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable
