Description
This was my first time painting in greyscale first, then adding colour. As it turns out, I probably should have found out how to add the colour before I started, because I got to the colouring part, then had no idea what to do. I had trouble with just about every part of this drawing, and from start to finish I've been working on it for almost 2 months.The wings took me way too long, and I had to redo the hair at least 5 times. This was all because I was learning this technique as I went along, and I definitely made a lot of mistakes.Β
Also, I'm still not sure about the colour saturation, on my laptop it looks under-saturated, while on my phone it's the opposite. Make sure to tell me if it's really off, because I have no idea.Β

Looks fine on my laptop. This is one of the nicer Spitfire pics that I've seen (when I can find them). Good work.

Fantastic!
Very clean and smooth. The saturation is at a sweet point on my screen, neither over- or under- saturated.
Color variation is nice too. The eyes are STUNNING!
I'd add slightly more detail in the hair, perhaps single hair strands sticking out...
I also made as many mistakes in my piece:Β Breaking Free Β But at least yours is watchable xD
Keep up the fantastic work!Β

Thank you! 
Ya normally I would do more detailed hair, but I really liked the lighting how it was, and I was worried I would mess it up if I tried.

Your art looks really nice! I like how much pose variety you have
I pretty much just watch way to many art streams, and try to copy their techniqueΒ

Well, thanks, I guess. I just kinda do my own thing, for the most part. A lot of it comes from asking other artists for tips. Yes, my art could be better, but I'm still young and can learn.
