Hello everyone!
I'm back once again :D

When I was still new in the steem platform I posted my Art Journey and said that I'll be slowly rendering the composition drafts I made. So here's my latest hard work!

Last time I showed you the sketch thumb I did for my artwork and just yesterday I finally finished the piece <3 I was not able to work on this continuosly because of some personal and work matters but the important thing is I finally finished it yeeeeey!

Here is the initial process:

Here's a tutorial I made that played a huge role in this piece:

Here's a gif of the coloring process:

I am aiming for a AAA level of style and hope to improve more in the future :)

At first when I saw only thumbnail, I thought this was a computer graphics.
I saw the process too on your steemit page, you are already AAA I think.

Hard work truly pays off! XD more to come!Hihihi thaaaanks ate @romeskie

Being an admirer of your art to see this I have been excited a lot, I wish I could see your works more often as they are a constant driving force and inspiration for me. Definitely it is hard work that your character performs and each one of those scars expresses what I say, I love the level of realism and temperance that your work has and the composition of colors that you used make your work incredibly magnificent!!!

I love your art, dear @adelair. <3 <3 <3

Thank you so much @artzone.curators and @nmalove. It's an honor to be featured!

Nice, @adelair :D Love that you have managed to complete it, finally ! I think it definitely exudes AAA style of illustrations, so you should totes pat yourself on the back for it :D :D :D

Work and personal matters often do come in the way of arting, but I hope things will settle soon and we will get to see more of @adelair's artses :D

I really like how you establish the blacksmith's pose. The arm holding the axe has convincing momentum and weight attached to it, and the torso's posture also gives a very good credibility to the blacksmith's prowess. Very nice! (I see you kinda struggle with the hammer hand in the gif, but you really nailed the final pose well! :D)

Lighting is also super nicely done! Dramatic and full with that cinematic feelz~ Love it ! <3 <3 <3

I curated this for OCD curation cuz I really love it very much :) Hope to continue to support you on this platform, @adelair <3 <3 <3

Thank you so much @veryspider. You've been part of my steem journey but as much as I want to post on a daily basis, it's now hard for me to keep up (coz of work, life outside work, keeping health in check, etc.) but I asure every post will be worth the wait XD (hopefully someones looking forward to it hihihihihi)

Indeed i struggle on his hammer hand. I have love-hate relationship with anatomy hahah. Thanks once again and I really appreciate your detailed compliments always <3

Pure quality work. I think you're already in the AAA spectrum.

Thank you so much @znkd. I am so happy to hear that! Right now, i've been aiming a higher level for any style I can do (both AAA and stylized) Hopefully more improvement on the future posts XD I'll do my best!

Amazing as always @adelair. You really have a way to make people speechless.


Thank you so much for your compliment XD I will still thrive for improvement. Hoping to post more soon!My pleasure @steemph!

Wow, what kind of pen tablet do you use? This almost looks like a 3d rendering with the use of highlights.
