Astarion and Tav flat colors [NSFW] (Patreon)

why oh why did I pick such a difficult perspective? I had a vision in the sketch phase, and then I get to the flats, and especially the background, and I'm painting in circles and confusing myself. i find I always want to create a horizon line, I want that depth of perspective, and so when the camera is pointing more towards the ground and flatness it confuses me hahah

anyway here's how it's looking so far! night-time escapades are the best. also ive never painted such a pale person before and I can already tell it's going to mess me up haha. signs of bloodflow is how you make a person really pop, really shine and look alive - but obviously astarion has no such signs. because he's technically not alive. oh boy. wish me luck

I'm saving her arm for last - not to worry, I've not forgotten it. it's sometimes just easier to paint the person underneath without anything obstructing them.
