This isn’t actually a study but an illustration! I even did lil thumbnails for once in my life 😩😩 enjoy another process! I spent like 3 days on the lanterns alone and i don’t like the rest lol. I did those patterns in procreate using the symmetry ruler then copied and pasted them in Clip Studio Paint and liquified them into perspective. That alone I don’t know whyyy it took so long 😭
I got so tired of doing the flat colors too. you can see in my process I start lighting without finishing the rest of the flats, I was getting too impatient 😭 I’m not entirely too happy with the whole illustration because I was supposed to add characters as the focus of the composition but ended up not being able to because I was frustrated at it 🥲 But nontheless I did learn so so much with this and I’m quite happy with everything I learned. My fave parts are the buildings that are the farthest. I tried to push my colors and I feel like I’m getting there!
