[Chapter 1] Texture Experiment (Patreon)

I became faster with my lineart now and the first batch for chapter 1 should be finished in about 1 or 2 weeks I think.

Now I'm practicing with different simple gradient textures to make some elements in the panels stick out more than others. Winrow's jacket for example. Initially, I also used an ordinary chess-like dot texture for it, as I do for the other clothes and the hair. I saw the straight line texture in some doujinshi and really like the visual effect of it, so I tried it out for my characters too. I think this texture provides some variety and ensures that I don't run out of variance in grayscale areas on the panels over time.
