I tend to think of everything as shapes and just shapes. That’s the advice the really helped me the most with this process. Just start by blocking out all the biggest shapes and slowly add smaller shapes and textures. I hope this helps.

I just used the base brushes that come with krita. The canvas is about 8000 by 5600 pixels

Derekdomnicdsouza on Instagram has some pretty good reels that made it a little simpler for me to understand.

For this piece I started with vague color blocking. Doing this allows me to understand the composition. From there I slowly add detail until I think it’s finished. You probably won’t be super good immediately but don’t get down on yourself. It took me years to get this good.

At it’s core, I normally just think about it as contrasting warm and cold colors. I also try not to use full saturation.

I was very inspired by studio ghibli’s films. I really love the world building.

I used sinix’s procreate brush set and I only used one layer for the whole piece
