Mask off, veil on ♡

The timelapse! I forgot to turn it on at first and only later realised its not a screen recording lol so I'll explain a little more here.

I used clip studio paint and the brush pack is Thick coating Brush Set (厚塗りブラシセット) & it took me 3hr since I had a clear ref and mental illness.

When practicing faces with a ref you can mark the edges of the ref or things like pupils to help with proportions and connect like?? Focus points to find the shapes. Connecting those dots, rotoscoping or drawing triangles and edges will help with learning.

Zooming out a lot, not erasing and instead blurring or going over it will also help with keeping focus on shapes ♡

If you paint base lines like I do you don't have to worry about lineart just base shapes. Set time limit to learn not to get stuck, it really doest matter if you end up painting over it, depends on style. Too tired to English rn but let me know if you have questions bye ♡

Oh I forgot, for some shading I used a multiply layer, rhe glowy thing is the add glow layer option (in sai I use luminosity) and I merge layers constantly bc I like how it blends when everything is on one layer BUT I save copies of the merged layers for backup.

When I use sai most is the same but I play around with the grit of the textures (bg more texture, important focus parts like the face = less grit), since sai brushes are so easy to customize

I rly should gather energy to do little daily studies again bc I haven't been painting in the last few days and it's not just gnawing at my sanity it's also harder to go into the flow without the habit or automatic motion (?)
