Illustration #36 (Patreon)

Finally finished this one! Why the dude turned out kind of night elfy is something I can't give a good answer to, haha. The color just seemed like a nice fit at the time.

You might also notice that I'm still trying to make myself more comfortable with textured strokes, especially on the environment there. I like how it creates a level of detail that is difficult to achieve as quickly with a round brush. I'll definitely have to practice it more before I'm entirely comfortable with it, but I feel like I'm making progress! Over the years I've gotten very attached to having opacity and flow controlled by pressure sensitivity, but turning those off seems to make it easier to get a nice foundation of textured strokes to start rendering on top of. That's a good note to self.

I hope you like the picture!

Also, I really wish I could post content here for you guys more frequently. I just really struggle to work fast enough to do that. It's definitely my biggest weakness. So I'm very thankful that you guys support me enough that I can do this full time even when I'm slow. I really appreciate it. :) And I'll continue trying to get faster!

As usual, you can expect to receive the rewards in about a week from now, on the 7th at the latest. :)
