Mirai Suenaga (STEP BY STEP)

This is the drawing steps of my artwork below


========
Steps:
1. Sketch. Sketch the pose and composition.
2. Lineart. I use G-Pen brush from MangaStudio (size 10 in A4 300dpi canvas).
3. Base Color. Fill in base color on separated layers.
4. Shading + Texture. I shade (with only 1 shading colors) on new layer above the base colors. After that I lock the shading layer then brush some other colors like purple or blue. I give some texture (in overlay mode) to some color.
5. Lighting. Above the shading layers, I add new layer for lighting. I brush some skin color to black and hair bang, then add overlay layer to give some orange on various places. I also color the lineart here.
6. Finishing. Give some simple BG (typography with the name of the character). Lastly I adjust color balance and level.

*throughout the steps, I often fix some mistake + adjust the hue, saturation, and luminosity.

Software: MangaStudio EX 5
