Here's today's Drawrch illustration - a man covered in paint!
When I picked out the reference photo foir this one, I thought the guy in the picture was just having colored light bouncing onto his skin. When I actually sat down to draw it, however, I realized that he also seems to be covered in bits of paint here and there. I have no idea why.
This drawing was kind of an experiment and is a mashup of a bunch of different styles/techniques that I have used in other drawings in this series. It mostly works though, and I think I am getting some good practice in with the halftone shading.
This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Inka brush for some underlying linework, the Soft air brush for shading, the Hard air brush for the very faint background Bokeh effect. Additionally, I used two brushes from True Grit Texture Supply: the Smooth Natural Nib brush from The Rusty Nib pack, and the Rough Dot Shader 45deg/light brush for the halftone pattern from the Beat Tones pack.
The photo I used as a reference for this drawing is from SketchDaily.
