A little shading work in progress shot of Natani! I decided to edit the cropping a little and am happier with this view :) Also trying out Midjourney AI image generator some more for background roughing. I created the small image there through a series of word prompts for what I have in mind for the background. It's close to what I'm picturing, and gives me a neat reference for colours and depth ideas! Overall I'm enjoying using Midjourney to create background 'thumbnail sketches' which I can build from; it cuts down the time a lot which is always helpful when making these pinups between busy day-job weeks ❤
On that note, this is a little heads up that I will be pausing billing for OCTOBER, September will still run as normal though. :) My partner and I are finally having our wedding ceremony on October 29th and I'd like to take some time off and enjoy seeing family who I haven't seen in years due to Covid travel restrictions. I may still have sketches to post but I won't be doing a full pinup or mailing a print for October. Things will resume as normal in November!
edit: background progress sneak peek!
