Resuming "Using AI to Paint a New Vermeer" - Progress Update (*'▽')

Hello! I haven't been able to make progress due to the year-end and New Year holidays and being busy, but I'm going to start working on it little by little now! ( ﾟДﾟ)

This was the original image drawn by AI. (By the way, I went through a lot of trial and error to get to this point lol)

Looking at it now, it looks a bit like anime art~
When I actually tried painting it on canvas, I realized the head was too big as it was! (ﾟдﾟ)!

I made some corrections. (*'▽')

I noticed when I copied "The Milkmaid" the other day that Vermeer's paintings are surprisingly dark in terms of color!
So, I'm going to make the room darker.
(I'm trying so hard to match the colors, but when I take a photo with my smartphone, it automatically makes them bright and vivid, someone please do something about this lol)

Then I realized that it's strange for the upper part of the wall to be bright while the upper window is closed!
Furthermore, I realized that if I make the whole thing darker, the face will be in shadow with the current head orientation!
So, I used a 3D model to simulate a pose where the person is sitting and turning their face to the right.

I feel like Vermeer's paintings have quite a lot of gestures where the figures are looking back.
I'm going to correct all of these and paint them on the canvas. It's looking good! (*'▽')

The thickness of the thighs looked flat and strange, but I realized the chair was too high. I'll try lowering the height of the chair.
Since the position of the grapes has become higher, I think I'll make the grapes themselves a little bigger too.

I feel like the consistency within the frame has improved and it's becoming more natural.
Shall I start painting the fine details now! ( ﾟДﾟ)
Please wait a little longer!

With that said! There's still more to come!
