D.Va Process Video!First time recording a video properly, a little embarrassing to show my workflow, but hope it's at least of some use to you guys!Kind of a wild ride for this piece! You can see me really fighting grayscale and correcting the color tones for pretty much the entire process. Super fun to do, and it was a great experience~ ♥ Also, thanks for your support on the work, really gives me a bit more confidence to keep expanding and experimenting in the future! ♥Finished work:P.s. for those who may wonder what brushes I'm using, it's from a pretty big collection that I haven't cleaned up yet. I'll try to sort them out and possibly upload a tool pack with credit to all the original sources where I got the brushes.
Why you're not getting anywhere with your artI believe a lot of you are asking them selves that: Why am I not getting the results, I want to achieve? Why are my portfolios ignored? There are many answers to that obviously. Luck and timing is also a factor, but you are not at the mercy of random events. You do have two things going for you no matter what you are trying to achieve and I'd like to write about those. This should be of interest to anyone who is currently trying to "make it into the industry" or who is struggling with their art - but why should you listen to me? Well, first: I've been thinking about the same problems you have and second: I've made every possible error along the way, so, if you don't trust my professional merits, trust me in having fucked up. I have also seen enough portfolios, read blogs and listened to fellow artist struggling with the same problem that I believe my personal view is worth sharing. So, what are those two factors I want to talk about?Expertise and ExposureGet those two right, y

Lessons From the Animals: Foxes Lessons from the Animals: Red Fox again.Persistence pays off. So here’s one that I’ve been having to practice regularly, lately. It reminds me of the foxes at the Alaska Zoo. They were given all sorts of enrichment while I was there, for the entertainment of the zoo guests as well as their own. Boxes full of chickens, odd crumpled paper towel rolls, and old pizza boxes were favorites of the keepers and the foxes seemed to enjoyed them as well; Mind you they enjoy anything that had to do with food.It’s always interesting to watch an animal with an enrichment item. Depending on the difficulty, a lot of animals will get frustrated with what ever they are working on at some point or another. Yet they keep at it, hoping to get whatever the prize is at the center of the enrichment.You never really see a fox get so frustrated that they abandon an attempt

Process~Just sharing a gif for the steps~!
My only nitpick is that she is with her left hand on top instead of her right hand. In kenjutsu the right hand is always on top since its the hand that guide the attack while the left hand is the one that give the attack its strength.
wathcing it is so encouraging ... goodness there are so many steps in making this masterpiece!
BUT THEN AGAIN
THERE WAS NO OVERPAINTING
SINKS DOWN AND SOBS TO ONESELF
I'll have to steal it
Thanks for sharing your process!
