On this episode of "Let's try to be sensible for once and not spend hours on details that will be completely invisible considered the canvas size", we proudly present you:

the glove seam

Why am I like this? Like this is 67% zoom and that is my actual hand. I'm basically drawing them life-size at this point.

OK I NEED TO KNOW WHAT YOUR ART PROCESS IS

HOW DID YOU GET SO GOOD?!

I love your art sm it’s the best thing I’ve ever seen!!!

awww thank you!! i’m too lazy to figure out how to make a timelapse so im doing a step by step thingy

step 1 : open pinterest and find a reference

this one gave me sayori and natsuki vibes so i chose it

step 2 : make a rough guide line sketch using the reference

i don’t usually worry about the first sketch being 100% accurate because the clothes will mostly hide the imperfections anyway, especially in this case where the clothes are so thick

step 3 : make the main sketch

the reference isn’t in the picture but i still use it if i can tell something is wrong, like a eye is too left ect

step 4 : colour

i usually skip the lineart because i don’t have the patience for it lmao, but honestly letting my art be more messy has helped me a lot since i don’t focus on every single detail and instead just have fun

step 5 : colour the “lineart”

i just like how it looks :)

now all that’s left is the background which i just kind of wing it and tadaaa

now i've finally gotten some aziraphale's under my belt, it's time to take note of what i've actually learned by tracing all these screencaps!!

i hope someone finds this helpful. if you're into this kind of thing, there have been loads of other refs shared in the good omens reference library!

Here are some of process snapshots of this piece of Astarion in Baldur's Gate.

I am a messy painter and I often adjust and change the designs as I paint. (Mostly because I don't have the patience to do proper line art haha)

I start out with a rough sketch, I usually sketch ideas out on my ipad and move to my cintiq to work with colors.

Next I block in rough color thumbnail. I keep this part messy as I just want to figure out the value structure and the overall mood.

At this point, I have collected a myriad of screenshots and reference images from the game, pinterest, and also from artists work that inspires me.

With the references on one screen, I start to paint the details, I work from foreground to midground to background. (Sometimes I'll bounce between the depth when I get bored from painting one thing for too long)

Sometimes after I block in the colors I'll make adjustments. I didn't like how warped the perspective was getting on the building on the screen right side, so I adjusted the vanishing point and added more tiers to the design. I went back into the game and looked at more how the stairs were designed and figured it out more thoroughly with a sketch on on top.

I think sitting down and doing the details is the most time consuming part. I still want the focus to be on the character despite all the detail going on the background. At this point I'm toggling on black & white filters constantly to check the value, grouping everything in the background together, making sure the lighting frames the subject in focus. At this point I realized, I forgot to paint Astarion's hair LOL, and that the bg was getting a bit too detailed, so I used a more textured brush and painted away some of the edge details of bg buildings.

Last, I make final adjustments, and I make a overall lighting/fx adjustment folder. Adding in some noise, adjusting the contrast, color balance, and lighting over all and call it done!

I don't save stages of work that often, even here there are huge jumps in detail between pictures as you can see, but I genuinely enjoyed drawing the Sniper, so I saved the process more or less
