MIO!!! [Xenoblade Chronicles 3] (poll winner) (Patreon)

I found this picture so tough!! I was originally gunning for it to be in the black-shading style, but it just wasn't working so eventually I decided to render it. It's so much better as a result, but it took me forever!! I really struggle making things neat and polished when I paint, so I kept putting off posting it and just fixing little things here and there. I've for sure been armed with the direction I should study in for a while.

With that said I think I'm in the beginning stages of hitting a stride with rendering and painting. I'm not like Kornart or Hungryclicker and a lot of my attempts are failures still, but when the zone hits it HITS!! I got a lot of help from Alinalal with this one too and she always keeps me sane and helps me trust the process. Thank you for all your support on discord too!! AND!!! DO YOU LIKE M IN THE BACKGROUND OF THE COMPOSITION!! I'm really proud of getting her in!!!!! I'm enjoying with messing with composition lately!! HELL YEAH!! THANK YOU EVERYONE, I really hope this was worth the wait!

I have a BUCKETLOAD of work to do this month as MCM is coming up and I'm in a few stamp rallies. The art I make for that will be presented on patreon and included in rewards after the convention (this November). Since I've got my office now, I'm going to knuckle down hard and become an art machine. 💪
