Hey Steemians!!
Today I share with you a sketch did recently to practice the notion of using colors, the purpose was to repoduce two characters that presented a gradient of tones in a way that gave the drawing a visual result of "soft", I also used some brushes with traditional aspect (the inspiration came from the contact with some works of good artists that I saw here in Steemit and that follow this style) to try something different... in the end I had a lot of fun dealing with these two! There goes below the process used... I hope you enjoy!
STEP 1: drawing a few quick lines to then define the main shapes and refine the sketch later.
STEP 2: I apply the flat colors that will compose the drawing, define details like shadow, direction of light and highlights... you can compare the progress in the following gif:
Thanks!
