Been looking forward to posting this one ever since I finished it, which was over a week ago now. It started out as me just wanting to do a hanging breasts pic and then I just built everything around it over time. I really wanted to include the steps pic with this one because its a good example of how much I can change things halfway through, especially with regards to backgrounds, and I actually tried a bunch more things that arent shown here (like clothing and make up) but I just went back to her default red.
Originally I was actually considering a beach pic, but since I always struggle with those I went with a bathroom instead, and then at some point I just thought it was kinda boring and Ive always preferred hot springs scenes instead, especially outdoors, so thats where the change came from. Then it was a matter of making everything work.
Anyway, while doing "Tender" I realized I had never drawn my character with her eyes closed even though its something I love because it always adds this super elegant look it and its a great way to "desexualize" a scene, especially if theyre not facing the "viewer". I might do a bunch more of that in the near future too with other characters, whenever I feel its appropriate.
This is one of those thats really worth zooming in on, especially for the details of the make up and such. Im always playing around with that (and as I said before I even tried different colors here, but I felt like it wasnt her unless I used red).
For the next one of her Ill probably go back to the "goth" look because I definitely wanna do a lot more of that as well and its fun having this "duality" going on. As I said in the post last week, I always prefer characters that have multiple sides to them and are in that "grey area", following their own moral compass rather than just being good or evil. So thats what I want for her.
Anyway, this has already become one of my favorites of hers and I keep going back to it since I just cant get enough. The problem now is following it up, as always, lol.
This week I took a bit of a break to do other things (had been pretty much drawing all day for the whole of August) but Ive already had the next post ready for a while so nothing will change as far as posting schedule goes. Plus I plan on getting a couple more pics done this upcoming week anyway. Basically trying to "rescue" this year after how awful the first half was, productivity wise.
