New Brush Download! ✏️✨ Soft Grain Shader 🖤

Hellooo! :)

A little surprise for you! 🎁 I’ve been working on a new shading brush and now it’s ready to be shared with you 🥰 I’m calling this one Soft Grain Shader, because it has a grainy texture that’s very soft (not gritty) and I love using it for adding some texture to my shading! The brush is a combination of several characteristics that I’ve enjoyed in other brushes I’ve used, so it’s like all my fav brushes ha...

Early Look: Darcy Studies 🦋🖤 + plans for the week! ✨

Hello everyone! 🥰

Today I finished these studies of Mr. Darcy, so here’s an early look! These were really fun because I experimented with three different levels of detail; the hands were the quickest/least detailed studies, the full body study is slightly more detailed but still more minimal, and then the portrait is the most detailed ☺️

Full painting process is recorded for you guys and I’m currently editing the video!! So stay tuned for another View Post

Hello everyone and happy Thursday! :)

Here’s a sneak-peek of my finished drawing of Feyre, Elain, and Nesta! ☺️ Omg this took me longer to finish than I thought, but I loved the whole process so much!! It was my first time trying to draw three characters together on one canvas, which I always avoided because I thought it would be way too challenging 😅 But I think it just required more patience :) And it ended up being so much fun! 😍
