Hello, Thomas! My name is Daniel Strugariu and I live in Bucharest. I was really excited when I saw you joined Domestika as a tutor. I love your work and I jumped right in. And it was one of the greatest learning experiences I had. I was really inspired by the story of your career change, as I also shifted from advertising art direction to illustration a year and a half ago. Your course helped me realize I can do more than I think if I follow the right steps and have a bit of patience in the process.
So I spent more time on research, drew and redrew a lot and fliped canvas a lot. ) I even made a long list with all your advices. During the process, I focused a lot on following the right steps but in the same time avoiding to copy your style. As I felt it might be a trap. That’s why at some point I shifted towords a more personal approach.
You also suggested to get inspired by the music you like. So I decided to create the illustration as a personal representation of one of the songs I love (Gorillaz - MLS ft. JPEGMAFIA & Chai)
Please tell me what you think as I am planning to do a series based on your process of creating characters and I would love to have your advice.
Thanks a lot! It really was a great experience.

Docent PlusWow! I'm impressed! I love the pose of your character and how she's leaning towards one side. Also, the car and background are beautiful. I wish I could draw cars like that! You've really put your own twist on the illustration, and the techniques used during the course as well.
The only feedback I have is that the plane of the face seems to be tilted to far to the left. Just a bit! If you're up for it, you could turn her face towards the viewer. It might be a simple matter of moving her eyes, nose and mouth. You would have to try and see if that would work :)

@thomasrohlfs thanks a lot for your feedback, I started redrawing the face and observed the difference between the the angle of the head and the angle of the eyes, nose and mouth, even eyebrows. Thanks again! I'm enjoying this a lot!
