Today's Drawrch features a reference photo that I've been sort of hesitant to attempt. The woman in the photo and the angle of the shot made it feel like it'd be hard to recreate.
I've been leaning into a less realistic style for this project though, and so I figured that might help me a bit. I think that it did, though I had a hard time breaking away from doing the shading in a more realistic way (at least, relative to the underlying sketch).
It captures the essence of the reference though, I think. Someday I'll have to make a video showing all the references alongside the final art. 😎
As always, this was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Inka brush for linework, the Syrup brush to help with some fills, and the Old Brush paint brush and Soft air brush for shading.
The photo I used as a reference for this drawing is from SketchDaily.
