Hiking Paths 🌲🥾 (Step-by-step Illustrations - Week 5) (Patreon)

Hi!! 🤗

For this week there is a lot of greenery in the references! The challenge is to create diversion in the landscape with a limit color palette! You will find my tips, base layers and final illustrations, together with the materials I used, down below. 🤗🥰

To simplify your illustrations, I have a few tips:

Don't start with a sketch, start with the base layer right away

Place your reference image further away or make the picture on your phone/iPad/computer a lot smaller, so you won't get lost in all the details

Really pay attention to the basic shapes in the illustration

Tombow 126 (Light olive)
