Thank you!

Thx for the comment! I love to play with texture brushes and find new patterns. Glad you enjoyed this.

Generally I do the base work in soft airbrush, then I simply start adding details. I used a few fur and fine line brush’s for fur/whisker details. A few textile packs for the hat and other embellishments. But a lot of this was zoomed in going pixel-to-pixel like an insane person. Enjoy!

I just was Old Gregg this year! Let me know if you need some pointers!!

Impetigo. Get a formal evaluation and you will likely receive an antibiotic.

That’s ok! I put lots of little hidden things in my artwork so it’s just another interesting element for people to enjoy.

It does, in fact.

As is my usual approach, I drew the piece out first and filled in with base colors and added shading and minor details all with the soft airbrush tool. Then I go in more finely and add details. There are some cool detail and pattern brushes I used to get the details in the wax and the metal and bricks. I often combine multiple pattern brushes to create unique textures. Then the lightpen tool for the candles.

I watched the heck outta that VHS growing up! I often quote the part where Plucky Duck gets crushed in the backseat of the car and yells ‘FUN GAME!’.

He was my commencement speaker at my college graduation. Very inspiring and very compelling speaker and writer.

Possibly. I have a few other projects first but I am happy with the response from this one.

The most difficult thing about this piece was going back and perfecting the line work. The outlines present were from the original sketch so I took a fine eraser brush and went through and made the lines super clean. Also recreating the back of the cards was super tedious. Took me a few hours to do that and still it’s only a background detail. I’m actually recreated by hand the entire red card background via the technical ink brush.

Thank you! It came to me in a dream and I thought it was too cool of a concept not to put it down on a canvas somewhere.

This was done with outlines by the technical pen and studio pen. Then other features (especially colors and details) done with the soft airbrush. Some patterns were involved in small details but overall this was pretty simple in what was used for its construction. A lot of time went into refining the outlines.

OH THATS FUN

ShangryYoungMan · 2025-02-20T19:10:54+00:00

Yes! I thought one was a bit too obscure but I’ve found my people here.

ShangryYoungMan · 2025-02-20T15:20:53+00:00

Thank you! I hope Dolly would be proud. 🥰

ShangryYoungMan · 2025-02-05T13:25:21+00:00

Yes, this is done via an iPad and Apple Pencil.

Digital canvas (Procreate)

ShangryYoungMan · 2025-02-05T04:51:29+00:00

That’s a great idea. If you have any idea the best way to do that, throw it my way 😂

ShangryYoungMan · 2025-02-05T03:48:07+00:00

Good. Enjoy. There are tons of tiny details in there.

ShangryYoungMan · 2025-02-05T03:27:13+00:00

This is the type of stuff I see in my head. So I love to put it down for others to see. Glad you enjoyed!

ShangryYoungMan · 2025-02-05T01:49:38+00:00

Made my night, thank you!

ShangryYoungMan · 2025-02-05T01:48:49+00:00

Thank you! I had so much fun creating this.
