I feel like an African Wild Dog :D

Yes!! As you could probably guess from my sona in my profile picture, I really favor and relate to deer in the sense that I 1) am a huge plant nerd, 2) i routinely eat random (mostly edible) foliage from the sides of roads, and 3) i possess the anxiety that only prey animals could possibly muster on a daily basis

Thank you for asking!

To help explain how I do backgrounds, ill also explain how I pick colors!!

You can see it in my playbacks of my art, how I do little thumbnails before I commit to any type of landscape backgrounds, which really helps with sticking to a solid color scheme and preventing the colors from being muddy!

For choosing colors, I really like to depend on the fundamentals of color schemes, mainly complementary and tertiary, but I find that tertiary is the most interesting color scheme type to me and the one I use the most in my art!

This art has a tertiary color scheme (red, yellow green, blue), which helps draw attention to alastor! I find picking these color scheme types helps prevent the landscape/background from being too boring/realistic!

I also build my way up to detail and use texture brushes because making backgrounds detailed without them is SO MUCH HARDER!! (For me at least...)

These three texture brushes were also used in this drawing, so if you use ibis, I hope they help!
