Description

Hooray for saving iterations in the right places!


So this one started off a little wonky; I'd intended to go more stylized with it initially, but I found that just wasn't working for what I wanted, so it gradually moved towards just being a more realistic take on a lion. I used a bunch of different brushes at various stages for this, and my trusty blender from Kyle's brushpacks. Reference used was my own!


Toward the very end, I applied a quick layer adjustment (levels) because it was feeling slightly washed out!

What kind of brushes do you use for this type of stuff? I always seem to choose brushes with too much or too little texture.

quick question between panel 3 and 4 do you merge the layers down and then paint over the lines?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

kepperoni In reply to nightMAREgraphics [2018-07-17 22:09:40 +0000 UTC]

Yep! I actually merge them down pretty quickly. I also lower the opacity beforehand!
