======== Steps: 1. Sketch. Sketch the pose and composition. 2. Lineart. Just do the tedious lining...and I change my mind on the composition. 3.Base Color. Fill in base colors, each color was in separated layers. 4.Shading & Lighting. When shading this, I choose a light & saturated color to keep the artwork bright. I use normal layer for shading & various other layers for lighting. 5. Lineart Coloring & Smoothing. I color the lineart then duplicate the character layer, clip it on the previous character layer, gaussian blur it, then turn it into screen mode to smoothing the overall artwork. 6.Finishing. Adjust the color using color balance and tone curve. Also finishing up with simple typography.
*throughout the steps, I often fix some mistake + adjust the hue, saturation, and luminosity.

This one was commissioned by one of my relatives 5 days ago. I'm not very proud of it, I had tried few new stuff for the first time, like the foreshortening thing (which I'm not sure if it looks right) but it was a good practise. And it's added to my Disney girls collection Hope you guys will like it regardless

This is Koriand'r who belongs to the lovely avicuiae and she was great to work on, even with four wings! <3 This is the first time in a long time I haven't hidden wing joints, so I'm quite happy, and she really was so much relaxation to do!
