Since Beidou tied for second place, I thought why not.
Early peak at her!
The approach I did was sketch to paint where I sketched and cleaned out the idea. (not too clean, just enough to get the idea to form)
Then I applied color underneath, worked on the colors roughly, then merged all (beidou) to one layer and continued painting. Also prayed and cried.
Hope you like it!
Full-res image will be part of the May rewards for Tier 2 and up!
