Hi, Hello!
It's been a while for me that I've been around this forum but hopefully im gonna be sticking around here again
Here's a portrait of a handsome man.
I tried to eyeball most of it in terms of value and I used oldschool measurement technique when I was sketching the base for it.

just another elf, why not?

well, that made my brain hurt and my hand as well.
Spent most of the time on the face
so couldnt be bothered by them metal bits

i think i might stick to sumth less detailed haha or idk, i'll see.

6 days of Inktober.
Still trying to find a way of inking that I like.

Since I'm done with Inktober I decided to start some random piece this week.
Trying out different workflow and gonna try and find a way to finish this.
Hopefully I will be procrastinating less this upcoming week.

With this piece I aim to practice my non-existing skill with colouring and training my hand to press just enough to make a nice shading.
I am also trying to not zoom in too close and work on everything at once rather than focusing for too long on a particular part.
I wish myself luck accomplishing all of it xD

whatever.

@malcom thanks, man. I am not sure about rim light yet but I am trying to blend her in with the background bit by bit.
However, today's evening i spent on figuring out the background a bit more and changing the scale of a character. I hope background looks better now and that character doesn't seem out of place anymore.

Since i didn't plan this piece thoroughly I screwed up my light again, oh well <_>
I tried to push certain parts a bit darker. I think the hair could use a bit more highlight, however, I know that blond hair doesn't really reflect too much light because it is usually dry and doesn't have much colour molecules in it but either way i think it could use a bit of a shine.
