I truly want to live off my art. Thank you for 50 episodes of support!

One month later, the public release is here! Today we are looking at the base color version for the Gojo x Sukuna piece (Lineart #08) from the second month of the challenge.

The visual tension in this piece relies heavily on color contrast. Balancing their opposing aesthetics while maintaining the "almost-kiss" ambiguity was a major focus here. Huge thank you to my Ko-fi supporters who got early access last month!

Handling the anatomy for two characters in such a close embrace requires a focus on volume and color flow so the subjects don't "bleed" into each other. Huge thank you to my Ko-fi supporters who got early access last month!

Month 4 begins. I’m starting this phase with a focus on Yuri romance. I needed to establish this emotional baseline before exploring more suggestive themes in future pieces.

Deep in the base shadows for the jacket layer. The first pass of shadows is always the most critical for defining the character's volume and silhouette.

I truly want to live off my art. Building this series is my main goal, and I appreciate everyone who follows along with these progress updates!

The daily 1-hour live grind continues to shape the main asset of the series. In this episode, the technical focus shifts down to ensure the model looks grounded, structurally balanced, and fully integrated with the ambient mood.

Today's session was dedicated to applying precise volumetric shading to the remaining skin sections, defining the tension points on the socks/thigh-highs, and carving out the heavy directional shadows on the boots. When dealing with complex accessories like footwear, managing a clean hierarchy of layers is what allows the future animation to look fluid without distorting the depth of the illustration.

I truly want to live off my art, and sharing the rigorous process behind these professional, production-ready assets is how we reach the goal..

Progress is built on consistency, not just endless hours. In this episode, I'm sharing the exact breakdown of today's live stream, where I dedicated my strict 1-hour daily slot to advancing the main character asset.

The technical focus of this session was all about high-priority areas: layering the basic skin shading, shaping the primary volumes of the hair, and carefully integrating the tattoo design into the anatomical curvature of the model. When working under a tight daily timeframe, having an organized layer structure ensures that no time is wasted wondering what to do next.

I truly want to live off my art, and demonstrating how a highly disciplined, efficient workflow can yield professional results is a core part of this journey..
