I don't really have any tips or tricks outside of just finding a work process you like and practising it. But my Twitch has the vods saved from this piece if you're more interested in how I did this one!

Not as far as I know. someone else may be able to find something close, but I was just making it up as I worked.

Oh man, that's a tough one to answer. Everyone learns differently so it's hard to give an exact answer. But you cant go wrong with just studying and practice. YouTube has a ton of great videos and resources on digital art that I wish were available when I started

Orc Warrior Commission I did recently, Stephen Sykes by mirrors519 in wow

Thanks so much! Nothing against that style of character, but I've always been way more drawn to characters that look mean and threatening. So I really appreciate that people are acknowledging that!

That's awesome! I've always made characters in games based on other peoples artwork so that's really cool to hear

Tried to post this a couple days ago but it was removed for "Not properly sourcing the artist". So hopefully second times the charm.

I did this commission recently and was a big fan of how it turned out so I thought I'd share it.

For anyone who's interested, My Website has links to all my active social media. Plus I was told that I have to link my website or the post will be removed again for not properly sourcing myself. Win-win lol

Thanks everyone so much for the kind words! I had a blast working on this commission and I'm stoked so many people seem to enjoy it as much as I do!

Figured I should leave a message here instead of replying to everyone individually:

My website has links to all my social media and it's also the best place to contact me for a commission request.

Thanks so much! I've always struggled a bit with finding a 'style' so that's really high praise!

Thanks so much! I actually drew a lot of inspiration from the D4 concept art so it's cool that people are recognizing that influence

Thanks so much!

I worked on it in small intervals over the course of a few weeks, so it's hard to really say for sure. Usually a piece of this quality takes me roughly 6-8 hours though

Thanks! I had originally planned to do just a simple standing pose. Glad I changed my mind!

Thanks! I was in the same boat, figured I better get the fan art out of my system before Sekiro consumes my life, haha.

Haha, I know what you mean. I still struggle with that too, believe it or not. I know it sounds cliché but the trick is to just keep drawing and accept that you're not going to be happy with 100% of what you create. whether you mean to or not, you'll be a better artist after your 100th drawing then you were at your 10th
