Field spaniel photo recreation with custom background.
This was a slow paced project started in november. The reference is a sun damaged physical paper photograph taken in the mid late 90s.
My computer crashed a couple of days before the supposed completion and currupted the save file. The drawing was salvaged from two of the latest screen capturs (the ones featured in this post). A lot of details were lost in both the time between the last screen cap and the file that turned out corrupted as well as these screen captures being rezised to a much larger canvas. None of these setbacks where visible in the finished product :)

In the final version facial features where adjusted to match the reference, mainly bigger eyes, smaller lips and cheekbones and skull shape.
Last saved screen capture before file corruption. This image was used in the recreation of the file.
This image was used in the recreation of the file, mainly toes and paw.
Edited the reference picture slightly to make the natural colors more distinguisable
Sketch and the reference in the same condition I recieved it
