Hey, how about all Steemit people? In this post I bring you the step by step of my most recent work in painting

The materials used were:

• Blue and red pencil (for sketch)
• Paper with grammage or canvas
• Gouache or acrylic paint
• Brushes of various sizes

                                          Let's start!

Start with a base sketch, differentiating the line of the face with the other elements, then I began applying paint of a pale pink tone to the skin. I darkened different areas very superficially with a darker pink and likewise added a pale yellow tone to generate some illuminations on the skin.

Then add the first layer of hair and eyebrows, a blue-gray tone, then a slightly pale lilac, darkened areas of the face, focusing more eyes, nose, lips and the contour of the face and shoulder. Later, I focused some areas with red tones, and I also detailed the face, giving color to the pupil and iris.

Almost finishing giving more detail to the hair adding different shades of blue, then make a lineart in the entire illustration in that same tone.

Finally add lighting throughout the character, likewise with a light gray proceeded to make the tattoos he has on his back and shoulder, and ready! The result I liked a lot, I would say that it is one of my favorite illustrations that I made this year.
