Gadrick's Hara [Patreon Draw / High Res / 3-Step WIP attached] (Patreon)

Last couple days I'm really itching to do more work with the painterly method to really cut down on time. As I looked more into it - it seemed Photoshop is really the way to go with their mesh warp and infinite brushes. Therefore ...

Maybe if I do more practice I can get better with it (that's normally how things work eh? ;) and figuring out different styles/methods is kind of why I set up Patreon with the draw. If I keep practising I'll be able to get in more draws. I think this pic took around an hour, maybe a bit more. In addition to getting more comfortable with the method and tools - I also really need to work on lighting and anatomy, some of the the draws may use refs to help me work that out.
