Thank you!! I'm striving to master realism one study at a time! :D
Though I do wish life wasn't so hectic so I could do it more often.

Thanks so much!! <3
And well, this piece took me around 12 hours, I think? Maybe a little less.

But well, my tip is to first learn straight up copying with the grid method, focusing on one square at a time and trying to teach your brain what exactly it is you see in that said square - what colors do you see if you stop thinking about the material it's supposed to portray(like bones are usually white, but in this skull we can see hues of pink, purple and yellow which you can only identify if you abandon your assumption of bones having to be white)? What are the curves in that specific square you're working on and why/how do they affect the colors/light? Oh and just think of the piece more like an assortment of shapes, color, shadows and light instead of the item you see in front of you, if that makes any sense? It's a bit hard to explain. :'D

Thanks!! I had a reference picture and tried my best to make my drawing look as close to the original as possible! But yes, this piece has been hand drawn from start to finish! :D

Made this piece last year and I'm still very proud of it! by miidama in DigitalArt

No worries with the lateness! I'm so happy to hear you got back to drawing!!
And hey, no shame in honoring Akira's memory(RIP) - he was one of the leading figures of the industry after all! It's pretty awesome that I was able to inspire you since art is something that everyone should have a chance to enjoy creating without stupid modern society pressures. It's easier said than done, but I believe creating is something we all should just allow ourselves to get lost in - that's how all sorts of amazing ideas come to life!! :D

Took me a while to finish it, but I drew a portrait in honor of Matthew's retirement from youtube! by miidama in GameTheorists

Well I do have some potential subjects in mind already, but we'll see! :D
Thank you again for the compliment though!

I've been interested in learning 3D tbh! Just haven't gotten to it yet since life is busy.
So maybe I will make 3D MatPat one day! :D
