In terms of my shading workflow, I’ve only put down the base color, directional light, core shadow, and center light. I’m liking it so far! Ive still got the cast shadow areas, occlusion, and bounce light areas to add. I feel like I’ve already incorporated midtones in the process of finding a blending balance between my center light and core shadow areas, so that’s why I’m not adding that as its own step!

I’m hoping I like the end result of this workflow, especially when I finish off with some details!

**QUESTION** : in Krita, how does one go about adding color to a value study? In observing different methods of adding color to pieces, the recommendation that I see most is to place down the values first and then add color afterward, but I’ve never seen that demonstrated while using Krita. I feel like if I just made another layer, an reduced the opacity, that it wouldn’t provide a quality effect bc the painting would just look…muddy?

I wanna make sure my face drawing skills include drawing older faces and ethnic faces! I’m enjoying the attempt to capture likeness!

Hoping this values study attempt goes well!

There are inconsistencies with the nose, so I gotta pay closer attention to that next time 🙂‍↕️.

Going to be doing Asaro head studies soon to get better at drawing and shading faces at any angle!

I plan to start studying the Asaro head to help me build a general (but not strict) scaffold for face drawing, especially because I want to get more comfortable with shading.

This was my first ever fan art piece, and it was originally just supposed to be a hand study, but I expanded it further lol.

The first thing I ever fell in love with drawing was hands! And I desperately need to get back to studying them.

All of the traditional drawings are from 2024, and the digital drawings are from 2025.

In the traditional drawings you’ll see that I participated in my own little Halloween themed hand drawing session, which I thought was very fun and I will definitely be doing again at some point in the future!

I learned how to draw hands from Korean artist “Chommang_Drawing” on YouTube!
