Okay, second drawing time! A reminder - I was working on a birthday project with my friends! We made a Strahd-themed calendar for our friend, and I drew three illustrations for it! And now it's time for June!

And there he is, in all of his fiery glory. The previous drawing had a calmer vibe to it, and I wanted this one to be more chaotic. Honestly, considering how hot it is at the moment, I wish this illustration was for July instead... And this time I actually have a speedpaint!

TW: Flashing Lights!

I worked on this illustration the same way as with the first one - I drew the lineart traditionally, imported into CSP, used binarization, and set the layer on multiply. This one needed a lot less cleaning in terms of line art because I liked how textured the lines looked, especially on the frame of the broken mirror. But once again, I hated how the face came out during the lineart stage, so I spent a whole day fixing it 😭 I kinda wanted to add more to this drawing, like some silhouettes in the shadows and the fire behind him, but sometimes less is more, and I just didn't have enough time :,,,) Either way, I'm definitely satisfied with the final work. It almost looks like a comic book cover!

HIIIIIII SORRY FOR NOT BEING ACTIVE FOR... A while, really. But! I had to stay silent because I was working on a birthday project with my friends! We made a Strahd-themed calendar for our friend, and I drew three illustrations for it, which I'm going to post separately! This one is the first one I started working on, which is an illustration for August!

This one took the longest because of all the details, and because CSP kept crashing because of the amount of layers on this bad boy. Just for comparison, here's the initial sketch -

I started drawing this illustration on paper, and then thanks to the power of binarization and multiply, I corrected it (I didn't like how Strahd's face initially came out, and the lady's hand was too long for my liking), and colored it! Some highlights from the process: I was filling out colors and got a little too enthusiastic with a bucket tool

And one of my friends liked it and made this edit -

I love my friends so much I also showed this drawing to my mom! She's a big fan of horror, and she's one of my biggest motivators to draw and improve. She really liked it when I was still working on it, and she asked me to send it once it was done.
