Character design for Hisuian Typhlosion. He is a neutral male in a rock jacket. I love the neutral look.

As we talked about on Discord, I tried a new painting method this time based on a new reference book. I used blending shading and more detailed painting, and took into account ambient and indirect light to create a watercolor or oil painting look. In fact, these are the techniques used by artists to create realistic expressions. When I studied the works of many artists, I found that they used this technique to a greater or lesser extent, so I tried to practice it as well.

Of course, it takes more time, but if you can calculate how to paint and what kind of expression you can achieve, I think you will be able to paint more efficiently.
