Fantastic notes on drawing David's likeness.

Hi! I'd love to make some Crowley fanart, and I'd love it if you could give me a few pointers about how to keep the Crowley look. Cause you do it so good, maybe yo have something to keep an eye on?

Ooh what a fun question. Let me analyse David Tennant’s very interesting face. This may be a lot more detailed than what you’ve asked for...

- Overall, his face resembles an inverted trapezoid. The features have a very “sharp” feel.

- The distance from the bottom of his nose to his chin is a lot shorter than the the distance from his browbone to the bottom of his nose & the distance from the top of his forehead to his browbone. This makes his nose appear long, but it’s actually because the lip & chin area is shorter.

- The vertex of the convex of his top eyelid leans towards the temple. His brow bones are VERY straight. His cheekbones are quite high and pronounced. The tip of his nose is split and tilts downwards. His bottom lip is a lot thicker than the top lip and protrudes slightly, but his lip area as a whole is slightly sinked in.

- His face is noticeably asymmetrical. The browbone is not levelled, and the nose bridge leans to the left.

By the way, does anyone want to see my notes on painting Michael’s face? 😆

Oh.

Oh.

The utter angel bastardry when you realize what crowley's married name is.

More spidery goodness.

Not a specific depiction of any one Spider-Man, more of a generic conception of an early 20s Peter Parker as I imagine him, though I did use the MCU suit because I liked the way it looked with those black stripes around the arms.

He even started to look a little bit Miguel with that hair.

Sketchy sketch

Learning how to draw a certain spider.

Think I’m gonna try again but make him… twinkier?

Not sure yet.

Here are the Sargent portraits that I referenced so that you can see where I drew inspiration for this piece!

Mrs. Hugh Hammersley, John Singer Sargent (1892)

I specifically referenced the rug, giltwood furniture, that little round pillow, and her skintones.

Gertrude Vernon, Lady Agnew of Lochlaw, John Singer Sargent (1892)

Referenced for pose and expression.

Ena and Betty, Daughters of Asher and Mrs. Wertheimer, John Singer Sargent (1901)

The vase!

Lady Helen Vincent, Viscountess d'Abernon, John Singer Sargent (1904)

The hands playing with jewelry, expression.

Milicent, Duchess of Sutherland, John Singer Sargent (1904)

Skintone, colors of the dress and embroidery, expression.

The Daughters of Edward Darley Boit, John Singer Sargent (1882)

Back ground colors, the vases, the floor and rug

A Place to Call Home --- --- ---

This piece was commissioned by my dear friend @tawnyontumblr for HER dear friend @saretton to accompany a WONDERFUL fic that Tawny wrote for Saretton's birthday!

The fic is A Place to Call Home (Explicit, on AO3), a Human AU set in the Late Victorian/1890s and featuring Portrait Painter!Aziraphale and Stage Actor!Crowley as his artistic muse. I am in love with this concept.

Crowley's voice was almost too soft to hear. It nearly faded amidst the sweep of Aziraphale’s brush over canvas, the carriage rattling past outside—another layer of stimuli amidst the light, and the smell of linseed oil and turpentine. The way the fabric Crowley wore hissed gently over his skin as he slowly, minutely shifted position and then moved back.

He half sat half reclined on a Louis XVI armchair that Aziraphale had picked up in an estate sale. His legs were crossed, and the emerald banyan, embroidered with gold, slid from one shoulder. Aziraphale had been staring at that curve of lightly freckled skin while he'd been mixing rose madder and Chinese white, letting the brush sweep over the damp canvas as he sought to give voice to the hunger he felt.

The idea here was for me to paint the portrait of Crowley that Aziraphale is painting in the story.

Tawny asked me to paint with John Singer Sargent vibes, who is quite possibly my favorite artist of all time, and one of, if not the greatest, portrait painters of the 19th century. It's quite a tall order to try to imitate his style, so I settled for something Sargentesque! She also specified that "I want I am both painting and fucking him vibes. Intimate. That's the word." And I hope I delivered.

@goodomensafterdark Ya'll need to go read this fic its hot af.

I post all of my work, including the really filthy shit, full-sized WIPs, tutorials, comics, exclusive pieces, and more on my on my Patreon

A print of this piece will be up in my print shop on INPRNT!

Reblogging this one because I was looking at this piece today and still am super in love with it. ❤️

Here's some process shots from this one, as a treat.

The original anatomy sketch.

Started laying down color while referencing a few portraits by John Singer Sargent. I specifically paid attention to how he painted hair (Sargent usually painted hair as one large, dark mass of color with little highlight detail) and how he painted skin (very subtle and smooth, not a huge amount of contrast).

Got the environment blocked in a little, too. I put that blue and white porcelain vase in because I can never, ever resist blue and white porcelain.

More detail in the environment and the character.

Adding a pattern to the chair upholstery.

Working on the rug, here.

This is the full rug design. I sketched the whole rug out in a separate canvas and then overlaid it into the working canvas and warped it into place to use as a reference.

Took this shot when I was halfway done with the decanter and glass.
