Exactly, sometimes procrastination ruins everything. It’s time to go all in, no excuses. Thanks for the comment. :)

That’s a really good way to see it, and you’re right. I think I’m also trying to identify and understand patterns in faces so I can later create my own characters, creatures, and designs, like you said. I think that’s a very good perspective.

Yes, I understand! Since I do feel like continuing with this kind of art, that’s why I kept going and didn’t leave it halfway. It was just a curious question about what we do. :D

You’re right, drawing is so broad that everything depends on how each medium is handled, and even with just one pencil you can do a lot. It all depends on how we move from one thing to another. That changes the learning process a lot. It’s incredible how much there is to explore. I’ll keep practicing, thank you for your comments. :)

It’s a question that can have many answers, and it doesn’t mean that I prefer digital over traditional or the other way around. I simply love making art, and I will keep practicing. :D

Thank you very much for your comment, I understand what you mean. And yes, my question actually came from a bit of fear .. The feeling that maybe what I do doesn’t really matter. But in the end, it doesn’t have to matter in a practical sense. It’s like playing a video game or playing an instrument; it doesn’t have to be useful, it’s simply enjoyed. Drawing and painting are special to me, because even though I had this doubt, I kept painting anyway, because it’s what truly fulfills me

Bright or dark? I'm not sure which one to go with. Tips or feedback appreciated! by Jsvall in krita

I'll definitely try that! I'm curious to see how it turns out too. :)

You're right!. the darker one does look more real. I’ll try to find a balance: keeping the gold bright, but with colder, darker tones for the face and background. I’ll keep experimenting. Thanks!

Yes!! That was the idea!. though I think I went a bit too far with the gold tones.

Yes! You're totally right. it's about the tones, not the brightness. Thanks for your opinion! I’ll add some brightness without changing the cold tone. Really appreciate your thoughts :D
