*click/tap, space bar or arrow keys to proceed congrats on 1k! i’ve admired your work for a long time and i really hope that i did this character some justice. hopefully this project doesn’t get taken down because of the sw0rd—but anyways, let’s get into the art process. 1) sketch a very rough sketch based on the ref (self explanatory) 2) more refined sketch/lineart the hair was really challenging for me and the hand was a struggle :’0 but i did it, so yeah 3) base colors i filled in the base colors—if you don’t know what that is, it’s like filling in the colors underneath the shading. also made some tweaks with lineart 4) shading shaded, nothing really exciting here 5) filters i made a big tweak since i realized that the shoes were too big (thank you liquefy), added the blush plus some ✨ color dodge ✨ 6) final the background and stuff was inspired by @data-pancake’s version, found a cool brush that almost looks the same as the one used :D art | me art program | adobe fresco contest | @data-pancake character | anne boonchuy from amphibia music | marcy’s theme (from og project)
