Februdoodle 2023 #13: Clog

For my thirteenth illustration for Februdoodle, I drew a clog screwing up someone's shower.

This was one of those nights where I really struggled to come up with something to draw, and then once I got started and developed the idea, I'm still not sure if I like it. I think the colors look okay and the framing is good, and I like the overall illustration, but the dark black lines just aren't really doing it for me or something. It starts feeling a little too much like a schematic or something.

I also discovered that there's something that I hate drawing more than hands: feet. If you watch the time lapse below, you'll see that I re-did the foot 4-5 times before settling on something.

As usual, this was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, a slightly modified Mercury brush for line work, the Syrup brush for edge cleanup, and the Hartz, Tarraleah, and Grunge brushes for background texture. I also made use of the Liquify effect to make my water shading look a little more dynamic.

If you'd like to see how I drew this one, you can watch the time-lapse below:
