From the Splinterlands Wiki: https://splinterlands.fandom.com/wiki/Silvershield_Warrior
The Warriors of the Silver Shield are the first line of defense for Khmyeria. They live simple lives, ready to be deployed at any moment, even though most of their missions are trivial errands. When a battalion of Warriors is deployed, the tips of their spears often find trouble where there is none.
Created in Clip Studio Paint Pro on a Microsoft Surface Pro 7+. Here is the timelapse video:
And here is the step-by-step breakdown of the drawing steps.
Step One: Rough draft
Step Two: Line art layer
Step Three: I set the line art layer as the reference layer then just scribble in some colors on a new layer.
Step Four: Then using the Colorize feature in Clip Studio it automatically colors based on the reference layer. And it comes out with this:
Step Five: Duplicate the new color layer (multiply) and add in some shadows and highights.
Step Six: Throw some water color splotches in the background and sign my name.
