Midnight Figure Painting (Tasteful Nudity Warning)

I need to speedpaint more. I love this site: http://artists.pixelovely.com/  it has some really good photo reference and the models are usually in poses you can't get in real life cuz no one can stand still that long. I want to get to the point where I can be familiar with the value and color ranges for basic figure painting without having to look at references. I did some clicking around with the eyedropper tool and looked for patterns in the skin tones I was painting from and I think I'm starting to catch some things.



Oh, PS - there's nudity. Actually, I think this is the first time there's been nudity on this blog, but I feel like its tasteful and not erotic. And not even painted all that well, c'mon.
