My first try at digital art! Age: 18
This was a birthday gift for a friend who likes Jinyoung from GOT7. I surprised her with a drawing of her favourite K-Pop idol on her birthday and it made her happy, which is all I wanted :)
This took 15 hours non-stop in 1 single session, I pulled an all-nighter to complete this on time right before I met her in person.
I wanted to achieve a photo realism style with this art piece so I spent a lot of care rendering the hair, eyes, skin texture, and the way that light bounces off the skin and eyes. I donβt even want to think about how many total brush strokes I did to manually draw this layer by layer.
I also used Medibang with a very old broken and discontinued Wacom tablet which I didnβt realize at the time is extra hard mode in the world of digital art β¦.
My mom said this looks like I drew a real-life version of Jinu from K-Pop Demon Hunters, so Iβll probably revisit this drawing and add demon tattoos to him :)
