DRAFT, i spent way too much time on this lol 2. LINEART(very proud of this lol),, i used the default pencil brush on firealpaca with a opacity pressure,, very good brush :> i used alpha lock after to change some colors in the lineart 3. BASE COLORS, i made a layer under the lineart and use the fill bucket, and pen brush to fill in small gaps 4. SHADING, so i made a multiply layer above everything and lowered the opacity, and then went back and made clipping layers(set to multiply, then lower opacity) on all my base color layers. i used marker brush with opacity pressure and a bunch of other additions to the brush 5.LIGHTING, the lighting is a bit too harsh :') above the multiply layer, and i made an add layer for this(same brush as shading) 6.FINAL THING, uh i think lighting to final thing is a bit of a big jump, but yeah its just a bunch of rendering that i dunno how to explain :') 7. idk lmao i thought it looked good with a white background,, but the darker bg fits the mood better :) OK THATS IT THANK YOU EVERYBODY ALSO i swear i will finish my trades soon, i sincerely apologize for all those who are waiting so long <3 i will finish them asap and get them to you soon ! ---- zoom in code: art/character : meeee reference : HAHA none, but i have should have done for the hand bc it looks SO GOOFY AH music: idk byebyebebyebyebye
