New Beginnings

I started this piece last year, after just finishing Outer Wilds and intending to post it on New Year.

Something, something, a lot of life stuff happened, and it ended up sitting and collecting dust in my WIPs for a really long time. Better late than never, I guess, though. What's funny is that it was almost done the entire time, I just couldn't force myself to finish a very small part of it and add the finishing touches.

Progress Shots below cut:

I started this piece shortly after I got home from LBX where one of the pieces of feedback I got was to take more time planning my piece and to not get attached to one composition before you've had the chance to try a few iterations of the idea.

So I really, really took my time working out a few drafts before I settled on the one that eventually became this piece and dear god that took so long. I spent nearly 2 weeks on JUST drafts. I normally only spend 2 days max planning a piece and that usually just involves moving things around and resizing things to try and get a good composition. This time I completely nuked my sketches (not actually, just hid them so I had a blank canvas) and tried completely different compositions. I also (for once) did some color tests before starting my final piece (my color composition can still use some work fkdslkfs). But also, this concept was just very difficult to execute because I really, really wanted to include music in the piece because it was my favorite part of the game, but it's also really, really difficult to work it into the piece in a way that looks good.

All in all, a good exercise and I'm pretty happy with how the piece came out! With time I will eventually make a habit of spending more time on the planning stage of my illustrations rather than just plowing through the first idea I have hehe

Been feeling nostalgic about Outer Wilds and realized I've never made fanart for it even though it's one of my favorite video games of all time. Finally fixing that!!

[zuzartii]

I have a sketchbook where I paint one art per piece of media I really enjoyed, and I finished my page for Outer Wilds recently.

I wanted to start sharing some of my traditional art on here - so for anyone curious, some process pics under the cut!

My first step is to always make a "sketch" in photoshop of what I want to paint, just so I can figure out placements of everything without damaging the paper in the sketchbook. Sometimes I do actual full sketches in digital, sometimes I just bash pieces from different photos or images like in this case - the point is just to figure out the composition before I touch the paper.

Once I have my composition ready I do my sketch in pencil, and adjust things from my wonky digital sketch as I go. If the piece is super complex I will print the digital sketch and use transfer paper to trace it onto the sketchbook, but most of the time I just sketch in a rough grid that splits the pages in quarters to help with the measurments and copy the rest just by eyeballing things.

For the actual painting I mostly use acrylic gouche, or markers + watercolors combo. The paper in this sketchbook is actually pretty bad for painting, but I really love the format and the marker pieces I have in it, so I just plan around the limitations. I know I won't get any good wet on wet painting going on, so I try and plan my colors ahead to avoid repainting one spot too many times.

I usually slap some random underpainting color on the areas I want to work on (like the purple under the black in the photo above), since it's super hard to judge values correcly agains the light page, especially if there's going to be a lot of darks.

And afterwards it's just a lot of laying first layer of paint, inevitably having to adjust, and doing the same over and over. Acrylic gouache is super forgiving in this aspect thankfully :D
