okay so i am aware that i know how to make good art but this is one of the rare times where i go "oh heck yeah time to splurt everything i know about art into an image" SO YEAHHH BABY i tried to make this as "character banner" as i possibly could IN WHICH I THINK I DID WELL?? patting myself in the back really hard rn, yipee1!1 ----- this took me 5 hours to make, and in those hours i also had to switch the laptop i was using with my mother's because my old laptop was simply lagging HARD, like wow my art career would've been dead without my mother's laptop to back me up :DDD Anyways, extensive rant about how I made the piece coming up! ----- For this "explanation" portion, I'm simply going to write about "diferent" stuff i tried doing today, so let's begin: 1. For the background buildings and it's texture, how I did that is that i got an art piece featuring victorian\gothic like architecture, i then got a magic lasso tool, set it to a low threshold of 15%, and began selecting random parts of the building. I then colored in the selected parts with the blue building color I had in mind, which created this cool texture i could then ERASE PARTS OF as to make the texture look like buildings! (dear it's hard to explain but it's basically clever photobashing in a way???) 2. The sword was just an image i took online ;v; I painted on top of it with some of my own shading techniques and highlights and color adjusting to make it look somewhat painted-in and consistent with the artstyle. I also tried to add lineart, etc etc, honestly it blends in pretty well B] 3. This piece is one of the few rare pieces where I don't actually "shade" the character much, like, i did add a lighting source to the character but the character itself doesn't have too much "shading", in a way it's more of texturing, shading small indents into clothes to make "crumples", adding a few streaks of darker shades in the hair to create the illusion of "hair overlapping on each other", dear gosh it's amazing how one can get away with such little effort when one simply get's everything else like composition, form, lighting, and colours right. 4. idk what else to rant about like i'de love to rant about how i specifically did stuff but tbh i have no energy, bruh the clothing details were hard (mihoyo characters generally have hard character designs SKULL) AND THATS IT GIRLIEPOPS RAAAHHHH IM SO HAPPY WITH THIS PIECE i've been trying to tone down my "hyperpop cApS galore" personality so that i may seem more approachable but gobble gobble gobble am i proud about today. -----
