#digital art progress

that’s 2 years of art progression babeyyy!!

hello!!! i have not been on here in forever. that’s bc i havent done any drawing in a rlly long time too LOOOL.

since the last post, i am now doing an internship!! im working as a design intern, and was tasked to make some illustrations. this is the first time ive ever seriously done illustrations. as u can see from a previous post, i usually trace multiple images first, and then combine different elements from each of those images to make a completely new one.. kind of like photomashing but.. vectors instead. so yes, this is my first time coming up with it from scratch!! eek!! i was v stressed n nervous when i was first assigned it bc i didnt know if i could do it. but it is going okay so far.

imma show an example of my process:

first, i sketched it out on paper

then i traced it out using shapes on illustrator... AHHAAH

then refine it by adding ~gradients and shadows~ LOLLL i referenced a lot of images for the shadows cos we all know how bad i am at lighting n stuff
