Splinterlands Art Contest 232: Kiara Lightbringer

in Sketchbook2 years ago

💜 Hi! 💜

"Hello everyone, 👏 I'm excited to share my latest entry for the Splinterlands art contest! In this piece, I drew Kiara Lightbringer. 😍❤️ I also decided to age her a bit. I really like her charming chibified look, which is one of the things I love most about her design. 🌟 I can't help but admire how her appearance exudes the magical girl (mahou shoujo) vibes that I really loves. 😍 I hope my rendition of her will do justice to her amazing character. 😊

Here are the steps I followed in creating this piece:

Enjoy! ❤️

Step 1 ✔️

I began my process by creating a rough gesture drawing to capture the overall movement and flow. I then moved on to a quick sketch, mapping out the details of the character's anatomy and clothing. From there, I focused on adding shadows to the piece, experimenting with different techniques to find the perfect balance of depth and contrast.

Step 2 ✔️

I make sure to refine the lineart after sketching the initial draft. This involves redrawing the lines to make them smoother, more defined, and more cohesive. By doing this, I am able to correct any mistakes I made in the sketch phase and ensure that the final artwork looks polished.

Step 3 ✔️

On step three, I added the flat colors to the piece. To maintain consistency, I replicated Kiara's color palette but made the colors more cohesive and harmonious.

Step 4 ✔️

I proceeded by drawing the background first before moving on to the shadows. Using textured brushes, I placed them randomlly to create the desired effect. In addition, I made sure to consider the contrast before adding the shadows to ensure that they complemented the background.

Step 5 ✔️

Next, I added a glowing effect to her sword to make it more prominent in the artwork. Additionally, I included a cast shadow on her hair to add depth to the image.

Step 6 ✔️

Finally, I added the finishing touches to the piece, including a vignette and some light bubbles to make it more lively. And without further ado, here is the final result!
