ooh your color schemes are so aesthetically pleasing!

Yo! These are so good you can't even tell which is the reference!

Not my favorite study that I have done, although it is passable. I feel like certain features (such as the eyes and such minute details) could’ve been more accurately copied. I’m still proud of it nonetheless.

Great job! Seriously, if you didn't mark it, I wouldn't know which one is the original :smiley:

Final two upper body studies/copies.

Been gone for about two weeks, but here’s twenty-one hands 👍

16 days later

3 environmental studies. The task said ‘simple coloring’ but I probably took it further than that…oh well.
As always, I am open to any critiques you can give; especially since environmental art is not yet one of my strongest suits.

*One noticeable critique that I would give myself is to move the girl in the bottom-most image a bit further back. She seems to be closer to the viewer in my copy than she is in the original image.

The only critique I have is that this is hella impressive. Amazing work here! I have to really try to look for differences, and I can barely find them, so nothing else to say really.

Finished these lower body studies.
On the lower three studies I tried drawing it all on one layer (after being inspired by one of Marc’s recent videos) and it really did cut my drawing time in half (from how long I predicted the process would have taken). For example, I finished both the Chun-Li study and the Pigeon 82 study (the blue background) each in one day (Separately, not the same day). I would’ve finished the other one (image second to the bottom) in one day as well but I was tired that day, so I finished it in two days instead.
When compared to having to do a sketch, lineart, coloring, etc., the process a lot faster. I recommend trying it out at least once. (I mean drawing on one layer, if I wasn’t clear before.)

I recognized Vegeta, He Man and Chun Li at a glance, but not familiar with the last two.

I agree with trying out the 1 layer approach. Funny enough, he now posted a video on 4 layers as well.

It's all about expermenting and trying out different things for the experience of it. Even if it doesn't become our prefed method, you learn a lot by just trying it out, and get to feed those learnings into your own workflow.
