This is my entry for the weekly Splinterlands Art Contest found HERE
Here is the original card:
Created in Clip Studio Paint Pro on a Surface Pro 4. Here is the time lapse video:
And here is the drawing broken down into individual process steps:
One: Rough Draft.
Two: Line art. Using a medium gray color and a thinner line to make it less obvious in the final drawing.
Three: Create a flat layer and hide the rough layer.
Four: Create separate color layers for the different materials. Blades, iron, jade, cloth, iron, and hair.
Five: Shading!
Six: More shading!
Seven: Additional layers. Overlay for highlights on the skin. An Add Glow layer for reflected light. Also, a separate layers for flames.
Eight: Create a background. Used an AI art generator for this. Also added my initials.
Enjoy! Thanks for perusing.
