Click to zoom, right arrow or space for next step in the process! Fullscreen might be best to see the details. ============ ↓ Art process below ↓ ============ 1: Finished piece 2: Closeup 3: Sketch (combined a few reference poses) 4: Started lineart (the braids took a while) 5: Finished lineart and made some adjustments to the face 6: Base colors + not a jpg anymore lol (I forgot to color the scissors here) 7: Added a basic color bacground and airbrushed some lighting 8: Used the g pen and turnip pen to do shading on a multiply layer + colored the scissors 9: Shaded the hair with turnip pen. Used watercolor to add more lighting & shadow + watercolor on either a divide or difference layer with opacity turned down (forgot which blend mode I used) 10: I made a Danganronpa font by screenshotting an image of all the letters on a sketchy font download site bc I didn't want to chance downloading something weird ;-; Then I took the screenshot and cut out the letters individually, set the blend mode to divide and spelled her name out painstakingly :"D (font was originally black on a white bg) I also made a background with mechanical pencil, pastel brush, lasso tool to fill rectangles, and used a custom brush to add texture. Also used a watercolor overlay for the background. I colored the lineart in this step using a clipping layer and added a blue outline by turning on border mode for the lineart and putting it behind all the color layers (sorry this step is so long lol) 11: I did lighting on a glow dodge layer for the scissors and glasses and also added some lighting effects + vignette to the edges with an airbrush set to multiply mode. 12: Finished piece! Same as step 1 :) Brushes Used: G Pen, Turnip Pen, Pastel, Realistic Watercolor, Mechanical Pencil, Airbrush, Custom Brushes (Textured pen and messy paint for background) I said I was going to take a few weeks but I crammed it in instead of doing something important lol (good luck to me tomorrow ;-;)
