TIME LAPSE: Russell icon (Patreon)

Process of a recent icon commission for GreaserMutt! I had a blast working on this colorful scene 😍 You can see how it took me some time to pick the right colors for the background, as I just knew I wanted to use purple but I was worried about it washing out the yellow of the character's outfit as well as making the values too murky. It's funny how situations like that that leave me scratching my head for a moment often lead to color choices I wouldn't usually dare to make and I end up liking it a lot more than my initial plan!
