MY DESTIEL FANART
Some time ago, I found some old stacks of canvas and sketchbooks from school twenty years ago, which I used for my year-end projects in art and design classes. They were made of this super rough paper that was amazing to draw on with a soft graphite pencil, and even after erasing with rubber, the quality didn't deteriorate like it does with regular paper.
Of course, in February 2024, I couldn't think of anything more stupid than to set myself a superhuman task. And in my new obsession with Destiel, to draw the two of them.
Once again, I realized how different pencil drawing and digital painting on a tablet are. I just can't do it right with a tablet. It's a completely different style of drawing, a different way of looking at the whole concept. With a pencil, it's just more intuitive (and I won't lie, the photo that was the model also helped a lot, of course).
The original image has been edited a few times in Photoshop because I had some things crooked, especially in the faces, some parts were blurry, and I added intensity, saturation, and dynamic strokes to make it stand out better.
Almost two years, nerves shot to hell, the urge to tear it up a hundred times... And now I'm still messing around with the idea of trying to redraw it digitally. I don't know if it was more therapeutic or if it robbed me of my sanity :D P.S. I love white pencil lead <3 You can follow my works on my InstaGram
