Random OC Doodle That Got Out Of Hand

foggy day

RW art month day 16: precipice

ah I love signal spires. don't mind the tear in reality

TYY

I have a tendency to diy brushes, my main rending brush is a VERY modified chalk brush, it looks like this lol

I don't use the less pen pressure = less opacity thing with this one cause I mostly paint with it and the colour mixing setting I have do a similar effect

generally 99% of the brushes I use have texture, idk why, makes my art crunchy I like how it looks lol

I made a few like, tutorial pages?(idk what to call these) with my main brushes and a bit of an explanation of how I use them :)

(you have to zoom in to see this stuff properly, I hope the quality is not too bad lol)

+ extra notes

tbh I'm honoured that someone would try to recreate part of my artstyle XD. take what you want from this, i hope it helps :D

Bri hOW do you get the lighting and effects that you want?? Genuinely it’s delicious and I need to know how you do it

uh so the thing is I started writing an answer to this and realized there's a lot I could explain but I don't want this post to be ridiculously long, you just can dm me if you wanna know more :]

SO in short, For the lighting I put a lot of gradient map and tone curve filters over my base colours. Idk what program you use, but I use CSP(clip studio paint), these are the particular filters that I use:

I think most programs have these? ik procreate and ibis have some but I haven't used other programs in ages sorry haha

you can just google if your program has them and how to use them :)

for the effects, I just mess around with stuff till it looks good ig??

idk, I don't really have a set way I do the effects, but I can talk about some stuff I do

I only use airbrushes with textures, so that how I get glowing effects to look like they do

if I want something to really glow I use colour dodge or add(glow) as blending mode on the layer

If I want an effect to be especially vibrant, I use vivid light, colour dodge and glow dodge

Also what exactly do you mean with "effects"? you asked this after my last post, so I assume that post prompted this question. like do you mean the big 4 pointed spark? the gold effects ring in the background?? the voidspawn? the wobbly portal thing?? I can explain how I did those things, I just don't know exactly what counts as an effect lol

ALSO also, ty for the compliment <3

man i freaking love jellyfish

(new pfp! :D)

spearmaster might be lost

RW art month day 5: Look to the moon region

Hi!

I wanted to put some of my art here, but I recently totally changed my artstyle and now my old art looks like shit to me. So here's the one other thing i drew in this style, a random oc sketch!
