Felt like drawing the Avatar having a blowbang session c: Ok, from what i said in my last post, i felt a bit stressed making stitched pictures and whatnot and i felt that i needed to return in making solo pictures hoping that would alleviate any of that weight i was feeling and BOY did it work! i absolutely just enjoyed taking my time onto just one piece again! gave me a new scope in just fixing every certain details that i can spot out without having to worry about the next stitching in the picture. i think my main concern when i was creating stitched transitional pictures was that every time i kept making a mistake in one part of it equaled less time for the next. of course, i shouldnt really focus on that creating art in general so its just another obstacle i should overcome in the future :D

on to the topic of this piece, i was really inspired by the artist, Johndoe in how he was able to put their focal characters in such a beautiful spotlight, like that of an echo to chiaroscuro (hope im using that properly) showing off their beautiful physique, shape, and form! the stark lighting really punctuated the scene and i wanted to try and provide that for this piece! so i decided to try and create the shadows in this piece with much bolder value to emphasize the reflective lighting in the shadows. i also tried something somewhat new that i feel i should be using quite often, is that i created a clipping group layer on top of the shadow layers to try and "hamonize" the piece with the ambient lighting which is this pinkish/reddish scene. so in short, i had a great time, experimented a little bit and pleased with the results! will be posting the cum version shortly
