Didn’t get anywhere with my GSoC code today, so decided to start do some painting and doing the drawing challenge. Had some fun

Made the sketch in 8bit, and also did the flats in 8bit. Then went to 16bit int with linear space to do the mixing. Finally, overlaid the image with a slight pattern, set to overlay, and then converted to 8bit, to prevent banding artefacts. Ended up pretty well

I had intended to record a timelapse of her, but only saw after finishing it that I didn’t press ‘record’… Took about 1 hour and 20 minutes on this.

I hadn’t painted properly in a while, so I decided to put down an image I had been having in my head, though I’m not sure if the eighties hair was really part of it, I’m not upset with it there either.

Drew this in 16bit srgb first before converting it to my monitor’s profile.

This is a test of comic styles in Krita.

The middle one being a watercoloury style(probably needs better colour picking to be really useful)

The last being traditional ink-then-colour, softshading style, and the first being a variation where I painted the subject first, and then added the lines. Painting is a little more comfortable for me regarding details like hair and folds(which are nice to sculpt this way), so it’s a little more natural to me to try this manner.

All of them have their own charm really.
