_{The Samurai and his Dragon
Illustration for Bar Yosipovich's story}
The story is about a samurai and his dragon fleeing the clutches of the emperor who wants to take the dragon for himself

The process 🎨
Here are the simple steps I did starting with

(1) A sketch🌷

(2) Inking 🌷
Then of course erasing the pencil marks.

(3) Adding crosshatching and some color🌷
I did some shading using cross hatching and I used color red and dark red for the red circle.

I also aded some clouds which I copied from traditional smoke painting.

(4) I put filter to create a yellowish effect 🌷

Then it's done!
