Hello, how are you? My head hurts today, and I'm struggling to finish this fan art again. Since last week, it has been raining and the weather is cold, maybe my body likes cold weather.
I was pretty active last week because the weather makes me productive, it is calming, and just looking at the raindrops inspired me to draw more.
What I don’t like about it is that sometimes the rain comes with thunder and lightning, which I hate so much. Sometimes when it is time for me to cook dinner, and then it rains with thunder and lightning, hell no, I am not going to cook. I just wait until the rain calms down.
By the way, for my fan art today, I drew Forest Healer with Chirple. I am still new to drawing animal characters. I think I did well, LOL.
The Process:
For the line art, the usual brush I used is a detail marker, which is my go-to brush in terms of line art and sketch. To make my line art cleaner, I adjust the stabilization of the brush.
For the next process, I used the shape fill tool, which is one of the usual too, since I discovered this brush, my life changed as it saves me time I used to manually add the base color, which sucks. With the shape fill tool, just adjust the stabilization and drag the brush, and now I have cleaner base colors.
For the next process, I still use the shape fill tool to add the base shadows and highlights. And then I added texture to the canvas what I do is I added a fill layer and then I click the pattern and choose patter I wanted to use, after that I set the blending mode into soft light and then I lower the opacity to 30%, If you use krita I suggest you to try it.
For this process, I start adding more intense shadows, and I use a basic flow brush in this part of the rendering. This part adds shapes to the character, and I like the texture of it.
For the final process, I added more details to the character, and then I decided that blue is the color of the background and the I added a swirling light behind her to make it more interesting and then I added lights reflection to the character to make it more like the light is glowing behind her.
Thank you for visiting, see you on my next blog. :D
Please take care of your mental health as well.
