Michael Fassbender - speedpainting

Michael Fassbender, speedpainting - click for a bigger size

I was asked to paint two more Michael Fassbender-paintings after the one earlier this year, and finally I have enough time to actually fill the task. I made special brushes for this one and started painting differently than before, by making the overall shape and going from “big to small”. Usually I’m stuck with details for too long and then I lose my nerves… Also, I used the black-and-white technique again and colored it later, and I’m very satisfied how this one turned out.

I call it a speedpainting although it’s more detailed and finished looking than speedpaintings usually are, but this one was quickly made. It took me around 4-5 hours.

And I also made a WIP-sheet of the painting process. It’s been over a year since my last one. Click to see it in full size.
