Splinterlands Art Contest Week 280: Torch Vizier

This is my entry for the weekly Splinterlands Art Contest found HERE

Here is the original card:

Created in Clip Studio Paint Pro on a Surface Pro 4. Here is the time lapse video:

And here is the drawing broken down into individual process steps:

One: Rough Draft.

Two: Line art. Using a medium gray color and a thinner line to make it less obvious in the final drawing.

Three: Create a flat layer and hide the rough layer.

Four: Create separate color layers for the different materials. Blades, iron, jade, cloth, iron, and hair.

Five: Shading!

Six: More shading!

Seven: Additional layers. Overlay for highlights on the skin. An Add Glow layer for reflected light. Also, a separate layers for flames.

Eight: Create a background. Used an AI art generator for this. Also added my initials.

Enjoy! Thanks for perusing.
