Revolver - Full Process (Patreon)

Fun study of a great reference (attached below).

My main focus was on the lighting and stylization + simplification. To attain this harsher overexposed look on the direct light on her hands it's important to get the right level of contrast. Which means you shouldn't be afraid to really push the darkness of the shadows. In lighting scenarios like this, I find it also helps a lot to think about why you see these colours in the shaded sections of our character's face/hands. It'll give you a lot of information on the ambient lighting in the environment.
