Good morning dear reader!
I made this drawing in 2019 and to this day it is still the most important drawing I have made, in this drawing I made a before and after as an artist without realizing it.
I did it because years ago I had also made one and it had already been several years and I thought it would be incredible to remake it to study how it would be the result after so much time.
It took me about three months to do it because I went through a lot while I was doing it.
One of my biggest challenges was the background I wanted to make a background and I still didn't know what to do and I opted for something simple a night sky I thought:
-It will be easy to make a background of a sky.
But it wasn't easy, I didn't have enough materials to do it and that made it even more complicated. When I started with the background I didn't even know what I was doing but I decided to continue to see how the result would be.
When I finished the sketch I spent about a month thinking about how to start coloring because that monster has a lot of details and at least in the head part I was nervous and I thought
it would be better to start with the easiest and so it was.
First I did the tongue. It was my first lenga I didn't even know how to do that texture and something that challenged me a lot was the fact that I also had to make glitter to give the effect of moisture and saliva as I had no paint at that time I had left the light spaces with the white sheet and so I was doing in all areas of brightness.
Then I did the eye, which was very easy to do, it was a type of texture that I could master quickly, then I continued with the skin.
The process of this drawing was important because it was the first time I did something with a huge level of detail, I was really terrified to know everything I had to do because sometimes you get excited to do something, you imagine it and everything but when you face the reality of doing it everything changes.
In this drawing I suffered because more than once I told myself that I didn't want to draw anymore, that I wasn't good for this and I hated myself because I felt mediocre for not knowing how to achieve the texture of the Venom.
Thank God I managed to get out of those moments of weakness and I was able to finish the drawing. That makes me very proud of myself that I could have given up but I decided to continue and not give up and I do not regret it.
Thanks for taking the time to read me!
