Good night or good morning everyone, hope u all doing great.
Finished a new piece and wanted to share it with you all. As always, there’s no huge story behind it, just the urge to draw and try stuff until it all kinda came together the way I wanted.
started working in Photoshop, my main tool, but during the process I switched over to Corel Painter for some parts. I like using Painter for certain details ‘cause it lets me mess with textures in ways Photoshop can’t, imo.
Like I always say, I love textures. They’re small things that sometimes go unnoticed, but they make a piece feel more alive and deep. Mixing both tools really helps with that, bte
The process wasn’t super linear. I changed a bunch of stuff, went back, tried new ideas. Nothing’s perfect from the start, and tbh, idk, that’s part of the fun..... figuring out what works as you go.
Also, I streamed the whole process on Blaze. Lately, I’ve been sharing more with friends during streams, so it feels more chill and natural. Drawing with some company.... even virtual—is different and kinda adds to the vibe of the piece.
Some details popped up while switching tools or messing with different ideas. Other things didn’t work out and got cut, but that’s all part of the process. You gotta be ready to adjust on the fly.
This piece is part of my NFTs, but mostly it’s just a record of how I’m working now, what techniques I’m into, and how I mix different tools. Each piece ends up showing a bit of that.
Sharing this kind of work on Blaze is also a way to interact with people and see how they react to what I’m doing. I like it being a chill space where I can show the full process, mistakes included, and keep learning while I draw.
Thanks to everyone checking out the piece now. It’s part of my journey, and I’m just gonna keep exploring new stuff in the next works.
Thank you very much for taking the time to view my work.
Oh, and one more thing before I wrap up...
