Hello~ I return with another illustration-type drawing XD I have really been learning how to do this and I'm also trying to blend the colors more to the background. This was basically a combined study of a lot of techniques on the app I'm currently using and I am pretty happy with how it's going along XD cuz it looks so good and so smooth ^^
Duration: 2 hrs
Software: gopaint
Loosely based on this dude:
So this one looks more blended and more harmonious than my previous mushroom drawing and although he looks lost, I think the colors really do look way better on this one. Plus I like what I did with the background XD that background probably ate up a good 30 minutes before I was satisfied.
So for my progression:
I started with the background and it really did eat up a good chunk of my time. So worth it when I added the lights and all though.
This is my forest and I really made use of the crayon brush this time because I wanted to experiment on textures a little. I am happy with the textures though so I only used the crayon brush this time around.
Then I started sketching my little Sporcerer and I could not settle on a pose so I just went with a standing pose.
Then flat colors, still with the crayon brush since it does look pretty good. And I appreciate that the crayon brush doesn't really blend unlike the other brushes I have.
I was already on shading and on the minimal line art I wanted it to have. The colors still stand out too much here but I think figured out how to make the colors harmonious now.
Then here is where I'm just rendering and making sure it looks good cuz I gave up on adding more details since I wanted it to look like a storybook illustration.
All in all, this was a fun draw and I think I might do more of this and try to commission this style too.
And that is all from me today. I hate how hectic this week has been so I haven't been putting much effort in my art. Hopefully that will change next week since I did try to finish all the samples this week.
Well, happy weekend guys! I hope your weekend goes well and I will see you in my next post! Thank you for stopping by!
