Artist's Comments

This is the workflow of this picture: [link]

Many people asked me for a tutorial.
So this is a very first tutorial from me, showing my workflow.
I will make more detailed tutorial later.

Okay!

First off, I must say that I have never before seen an artist pull off such a condensed tutorial- but still get the point across perfectly.

Many people think that there are a million things that go on behind the scenes, but when it comes down to it, everything can be condensed-- yet still be just as helpful; and I really think you have accomplished that with this tutorial in particular!

Even in a mere four screenshots, you've managed to square away some curiosities watchers may have had in the past, such as 'Do they lay their background down in the beginning or towards the end?', or even 'What color do they like to sketch in!?'

I, for one, am the kind of person that thinks less is more and really admires those who can successfully utilize that guideline to their advantage. In this tutorial you got down to business and straight to the point, and in the end reflected to your watchers that you have truly perfected your art and are decently comfortable with it. Comfortable to the point where you don't need to describe detail-by-detail what you did, but just take a few progress shots and prove to those who were wondering that it isn't at all as difficult as it may seem.

Many tutorials I have seen in the past are far too large and elaborate- and often discourage the artists that read them along the way. They make it seem like it's too much work to get closer to accomplishing a piece of artwork as complicated as that.

But here, I commend you greatly for taking something that is beautiful, elaborate, and gorgeous all at the same time and breaking it down just a little bit, instead. You've published a wonderful, condensed tutorial on your workflow that doesn't discourage other artists whatsoever! Very well done. ^_^

I suppose you made your own custom brushes for thye background painting?
It has a very nice painterly effect :)
:iconjackxtessa:
Oh, it's much simpler than I thought! I suppose many things in drawing and painting are similar. I thought you didn't use lines at first...
