@cedricgo Thanks!
Continuing with ladies
Great hand studies!
I love that painting too! I need to try and use different light colors like you have here!
Excited to see more!
Could you tell me please what program you use to create such kind of arts. Do you create this “from nothing”, from 3D model or from photo? I just wonder how to get an effect of volume (I mean like sakura from naruto)
@big-misch Thanks! More to come for sure, though I'm very slow in creating my illustrations @natallia I paint my illustrations from scratch, without 3D or photos, sometimes I help myself with reference, but I never copy it exactly, unless it's a study. I Used to paint in SAI but now I've switched to Photoshop (starting from Rei everything is in PS). As far as creating feel of volume, studying perspective and how light interacts with form really helps. Mannequin studies of a figure do help a lot too. It's also a very good Idea to think of the object you draw being volumetric. I hope it helps, I'm not very good at explaining.
Anyway here's a portrait study. I tried
thanks a lot! I'm not very good at using PS for now that's why i was wondering if this effect can be reached in PS from the picture which doesn't have volume itself. But if I understood you right, you paint every single detail, every shadow and all the effects you want, than take a photo and slightly modify in PS?
@natallia I paint, look at photo or at real life if I need, and then paint again, to put it simply. There isn't anything except painting in picture itself in other words. And also 99% of the time I paint on normal layers. So yeah it doesn't really require any special knowledge or software. You just grab a brush, pick a color and paint Knowing PS is helpful, but it won't magically make paintings better.
So I have this dude turned 4 years recently I also did a new painting and started an artstation https://www.artstation.com/artist/amifluffy

great great work . its awesome and the consistent way you study just shows what a great artist you are, ill keep an eye on you !
@HorizonDwellerThank you for kind words
Still working on portrait sketches. Will keep doing these for a little while I guess.
I wanted to paint something softer and brighter, so here is TemariAnd this
Didn't post anything here in a little while, so I will probably make few posts with what I have piled up over the time. There isn't too much though, I've spend a lot of time experimenting, doing random stuff and throwaway sketches and studies here is the first one
You've improved a lot since your last post. Those studies seem to have helped. Nothing much to add. Adding a stronger rim light to have it stand out more is the only thing I think you can do. The blue rim doesn't make it pop off the background as much. It looks nice nonetheless. Nice colors and clean render all around.
Keep up the good work.
@malcom Thanks, although I feel more like I've just changed the approach and improved my confidence a little

Hi! The way you render looks fantastic! Especially the clothing (:The only thing I can say is to maybe add a bit more color variations to the skin, maybe even some imperfections to break it up a little.Nice work!
That demon girl looks pretty sweet! There's definitely some solid of improvement compared to your work a few months back.
Keep it up!
