man, this one really demanded a LOT of time out of me. Wasn't just due to the amount of dynamics in it but i also made it take even longer because i started on some new ways to render the penis textures as well as a new method to render juice/wetness so that it's far more efficient, more visualized in shape, pops out more in depth and sheen, and just an easier, fun process! it was such a simple solution to be honest. I've always enjoyed my sketches of how i created wet marks on objects either it'd be a character or on a backround/object but wasn't able to preserve that bold mark in shape that it had. so in order to preserve this, i tried just blocking in a hard, rough color like dark red or something idk. locked the layer and just air brushed any near by color it interacted.

this way, i didn't have to meticulously brush every single color or mix any color and it offers easier color reflections! and as mentioned before, due to the base dark color, it helps bolden out it shape as it fades away. this definitely started to make me more confident in creating wet shapes now when i fully render an image and i seriously can't wait to use it some more. some of you may not like it but i personally enjoy it c: speaking of which, since this piece was adamant in taking time out of me, it really gave me time to think as i did the process as an artist. i started to realize something that was very obvious that i already know but just needed to be reminded again (warning, fucking cheesy as hell at this point) is that i need to do art for the sake of enjoying it again. every time i became conscious of profit or conscious of trying to appease the fan base, it hinders my performance, patience, and created so much stress.

however, when i did it because i personally just wanted to improve, wanted to do it when i felt like doing it and most of all, just got lost doing it, it's what made me do these experiments and improvements in the first place. even though it's the most insignificant, most finite and microscopic amount of improvement, i still gained at least something which i was satisfied and happy about. (told you it was cheesy) anywho, now that my shpiel is over, hope you all enjoy! i certainty did :D (not like that)
