Here are all the steps taken to create the lastest reward for Leaf!
- 1- Early sketch: The very 1st sketch was a little messy at the start, I needed to figure out how to draw a 4 legged character in a 2 legged pose with a specific feel to it without it looking too weird. I wanted Leafa here to look like she was kinda struggling to keep balance while looking as confident and cocky as possible.
- 2- Sketch 1: After a good number of tweaks, and some resizing, I got the proper sketch done including the rough bg, which was going to be very simple in itself.
- 3- Sketch 2: Then on a different layers I added another sketch featuring all the clothes and parts of the costume + the notes on what everything is supposed to be. I also had to get creative with reasonable ways for someone to dress up and look like a lucario.
- 4- Lineart: After everything is in place, I draw the proper clean lines with extra fixes and details, I also add a lil cone on the chest at the request of the patron.
- 5- Flat colors: Now I color everything with the right colors, pretty straightforward.
- 6- Gradients: I add gradients to all colors and and extra couple layers to make it look like she dyed some of her leaves black to match the lucario palette.
- 7- BG base: Now to start working on the background, I set in all the sharp bases for each element of the bg, featuring floors. walls, doors, etc. all in their separate layers
- 8- BG details: Then I add several layers with extra strokes and details to all the elements.
- 9- Environmental shadows: Then I put the characters in the bg, and draw some shadows inbetween the characters and the bg.
- 10- Shading & linecolor: Now I add 2 layers (1 for shadow one for hightlights) to further sell the idea that the character is being illuminated by something in the room.
- 11- Extra lightning effects: Now I add some airbrush touches to both the bg and the characters to add more shadows and lightning effects.
- 12- Lil extra dialogue: Aaaand a lil extra dialogue because why not.
