This is my entry for the weekly Splinterlands Art Contest found HERE
From the Splinterlands Wiki: https://splinterlands.fandom.com/wiki/Highland_Archer
The Highland Archers live in the mountains that surround the Life Splinter. They were trained by the Centauri Bowmen of Anumün, and migrated from Lyveria several generations ago. The Order of the Silver Shield does not interfere with the Archers’ simple existence high in the mountains of Khymeria.
Here is the original card art:
Created in Clip Studio Paint Pro on a Microsoft Surface Pro 7+. Here is the timelapse video:

And here is the step-by-step drawing process:
Step One: Rough draft
Step Two: Lineart. I used the Real G-Pen brush and a dark grey color so the line art looks more like pencil work
Step Three: Flat color layer
Step Four: Painting. Different process for this piece. Instead of separate color layers I just painted the whole thing using an oil paint brush on a single layer. More work, so I doubt I'll do this again
Step Five: Background. Just a quick background with some water color strokes
Step Six: Fame and Fortune!
