Cynthia - December 2023's Reward
Added 2023-12-21 16:59:27 +0000 UTCFirst, I want to thank everyone for your patience and for not leaving after a long time waiting for me to take some break and polish this artwork.
It's nearly done. I still need to make variants but I can say this month Cynthia is here ! I promised you to finish and post it on Dec 21. Looks like I made it ( not the reward post but please pardon me then T.T )
After the trip, I plan to start to work asap but once I got back, I slept like a log after a long trip so...I lost a day. That is why I worked my best with less sleep until now with hope I can keep my promise. I made it at the last minute..
This piece is a piece of work to be honest. I tried the new palette so It took a lot more time like I said in my previous post. But not only that, the background is also tricky as hell. The same problems with the Hasumi piece. The city background can look so good and it does not take much time when drawing from far away. A shot in the street will require a lot of measure, rendering and... ideas. Each house is different so the feeling that I don't know what to put in this happens all the time. Besides, the color bank for the city is limited as well. It messes up my color system a lot so I have to change color all the time for each object if I don't want everything in chaos. And last, although I tried my best on the background, most of it on the bottom. The top doesn't have many good ideas and the skyscape building is pretty boring with their windows so not much I can do here.
But I really really want to draw Cynthia in Castelia City once so I did my best but just this time. Never again haha
I hope this piece will satisfy your waiting. I will start to draw Mococoo and Fuwawa right after I finish exporting variants.
Thank you for supporting me !

Yeah, some settings I can't help but have to put it on where you can't see it however it makes sense. That is why I don't draw this angle that much but maybe that is why I don't have much experience with it. Those small details really cost my time. The hardest part of the background is you have to think what to put in it. Usually the streets are very spacious and there are not many objects there so.. if I put it in the artwork, it's kinda boring. But well, maybe I just don't have enough time with them because the time for the background was only 1 - 1.5 day.. I really can't do much with it. Thank you ! That will be the main research subject in 2024. Let's look forward to it !

2023-12-30 16:48:29 +0000 UTCI really love how Cynthia turned out here and I actually really really like the way you did the city background in this one. Even though a lot of the details are bottom loaded, the way the buildings tower above her on all sides really makes you feel like you're on the street with her, and the angle looking up at her is really sexy. I think what really makes this kind of background work are little things like the signs you put around, the trees in the back, and stuff like the discolored bricks on the left building, little touches that give the buildings the feeling they're really being used and that they've maybe been around for awhile. It's interesting because different cities have different feelings and identities to them, so you could go different ways with it. I wish you luck as you continue to experiment with the colors and the lighting! Thank you for your hard work.

2023-12-29 20:38:42 +0000 UTCHope you like the view ( อกยฐ อส อกยฐ) This piece took so much time so actually when I was stuck with the background. I was worried sick back then. But luckily, I nailed it on the 2nd day somehow. This kind of setting usually needs a week to draw and render all detail.. not just 2 days. Time is short so I can't do more about the lightning but at least I nailed it on her body color this time ! Hope I can continue to succeed on my next research ! Thank you !
