Hello community, little by little returning to the rhythm of the drawings, today I am going to show you this last one that I made called "The secret of freedom"
This work took days to be finished, even a sleepless night, I was obsessed with finishing it to see if it actually turned out how I imagined it, although the initial sketch had some differences, along the way of this long process, my mind adjusted things that I did not like so much for this drawing and in the end I was adding the new details that I wanted to see reflected in this illustration.
After making the sketch and realizing that some elements that I placed did not convince me at all, I decided to only place the base colors that I would use on the face to guide me and continue painting as I wanted, after adding all the light, medium and dark tones I started to give more shape, adding more clarity to the face and using a brush with texture and low opacity to mix each color and thus better unify them.
All the first step was on the face, varying brushes and opacity, to achieve smooth and somewhat realistic skin.
Then I took care of his neck, giving him the same touch-ups as in the face, looking for the right way where it would look more real, I painted his eyebrows with two brushes, with one I did hair by hair and with another I finished filling, this last brush is one that simulates hair, giving little pressure I was able to make the eyebrows look more voluminous, I drew some small traces of blood coming down from his forehead, I thought that touch of red in this desaturated illustration was very nice, for his hair I chose a aqua green tone, of this same color I chose in the palette the light and dark ones to shape the hair, I painted it little by little with waves so that it had a more elegant and beautiful look.
Paint her blouse black, adding some small details with light gray. Continue with the background, I wanted a neutral background so that the protagonist would not be overshadowed by so much information behind it, but it was very difficult for me to choose the tone I wanted for that background, so after an hour I felt satisfied by placing a gradient with a olive green, I drew some butterflies around it, these butterflies were quite difficult, I gave them detail and some of them I copied and pasted so as not to repaint them.
It occurred to me to open its neck using a fairly dark brown tone and make some butterflies come out of that small hole, finally I did some touch-ups of light and color so that my work had that more "old" look that seemed spectacular to me.
And that was the whole process to get to the final result, a summary of those 5 days I was drawing at night obsessed with finishing this haha, I hope you liked the process, the explanation and the final result so much.
Thanks!
