Illustration process

Track by @astrosynth from their latest EP, ENTITY!

Thanks for sharing your process! The level of detail in your work is fascinating to watch. Do you use a lot of layers?

Thank you for your kind words! I like painting in a single layer (solid color bg + sketch + color) and adding any necessary fixes in a new layer at the end

what the fuck

This is very beautiful I've had a terrible day and was in the middle of a crisis when I opened twitter and saw your art and it helped me calm down, so thank you for posting

Ah, I hope you feel a little bit better! Much love 🩷

how long did this take??? it's so detailed!

Around 15 hours! Not counting breaks, though. I also take a long time sketching and deciding the piece's specifics before starting but don't track the time until I'm sure what the final piece is going to look like

@xiaozuansuki wow I scrolled past this several times thinking it was a clay figure until I let the video play
