Final product post

Wip Commission for Para#7561 on Discord! <3

Featuring their OC dragon character "Para" (The small tiny bab) and Darala, a character from another owner, having a nice time together being cute and friendly <3

These are all the steps taken to create this picture:

1- Rough Sketch: The very first sketch was very very rough, and the huge size difference would make it kind of hard to get a good grasp of how the picture should look like so I went with something fast and then showed it to Para for revision.
2- Sketch: After the early revisions, everything looked good to go so I went ahead and polished the whole sketch!
3- Sketch zoom: After some revisions we decided to add a little zoom, because Para was still too small in the picture and Darala took too much of the screen.
4- Lineart: I add all the clean lines, including all the details necessary and making sure all proportions are done right
5- Flat Colors: I fill in all the lines the colors needed.
6- Gradients: Then I move on with some dark and light gradients for each individual color, making everything look a little nicer! :)
7- Shading: Added 3 layers for the shadows and the highlights, all colored and with their proper layer settings.
8- Lighting Effects: Now to go with glow and and extra color correction on some other layers apart
9- Environment Effects: Last but not least I decided to add some extra stuff for the environment, with godrays and some shine coming from the top!
