Real-Time Painting Process: My Webtoon OC 🖤✨

Happy Sunday everyone:)

I recorded the full coloring & rendering process of my Webtoon OC, so here is the real-time video for you! 🥳 I decided to change up my process a little with this piece because I worked on each character sketch one at a time, rather than working on all three at once :) Usually I work on all the sketches at once because I thought it made my process faster, but I actually discovered that working on one at a time felt faster for me! 👀 I rea...

Sketch Sneak-Peek: Warrior ⚔️✨

Hello again! ☺️

It’s currently a cozy evening and I’ve been sketching in my studio, and I wanted to show you what I’m working on :) I’ve been reading a lot of fantasy books lately and many of them have these warrior female leads that I think are sooo cool, so I felt like drawing a warrior girl in some armor! 🗡️✨

I sketched her with a neutral face at first, but I felt like I wanted to add more character/personality to her face, so I changed it to...

Hellooo! 💕 

I’m really enjoying painting movie scenes at the moment and I felt like painting another from Romeo & Juliet 1996! I just love Juliet’s outfit so much and needed to draw it again, it‘s literally angelic ☺️ So here is a work in progress! There’s still quite a bit I need to render; more shadows in the background and textures/rendering to add to Juliet, but I wanted to share my current stage of progress with you:)

Hellooo everyone!!

Here’s a lil sneak-peek of a drawing I finished last night ☺️ I wanted to experiment with a more painterly approach in this one and used an underpainting technique! Underpainting is an oil painting technique that can bring a special warmth to the colors as you paint on top, and I do this sometimes with digital art to get a similar effect :) I also mainly used a flat brush for this so the textures are different, and it was really fun to play wit...
