Description

This is the drawing steps of my artwork below

[037] The New Beginning Cover by Hananon

========
Steps:
1. Sketch. Sketch the pose and composition.
2. Lineart. Just do the tedious lining...and I change my mind on the composition.
3. Base Color. Fill in base colors, each color was in separated layers.
4. Shading & Lighting. When shading this, I choose a light & saturated color to keep the artwork bright. I use normal layer for shading & various other layers for lighting.
5. Lineart Coloring & Smoothing. I color the lineart then duplicate the character layer, clip it on the previous character layer, gaussian blur it, then turn it into screen mode to smoothing the overall artwork.
6. Finishing. Adjust the color using color balance and tone curve. Also finishing up with simple typography.

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