1920s Bride.. Photoshop Practise

I'm currently trying to find my style through a different range of mediums, from Photoshop to watercolours to colour pencils.

So here are the work-in-progress images as well as the final one for a 1920s style Bride.

I may be working on some wedding invitations for a family friend soon, so want to try and find a way of colouring that suits me.

This piece was really fun to work on. I loved working on all the details; the lace, headband and bouquet in particular.

I made the brush too. I got the default hard round brush and adjusted the hardness and spacing to make the imperfect edge which is a favourite style I see in other illustrators artwork. I'll need to develop a few more though.

As I didn't plan the background, it's very simple, but I will definitely plan the backgrounds in the future. I definitely prefer a minimalist style to backgrounds, but definitely need to practise spacial backgrounds with depth, perspective and objects.
