Morning photo study [ Art process included ! ]

I just wanna say Im a sucker for warm vs cool lighting scenarios but they're just so fun to do even though its harder than you think it is, its an enjoyable way to kill time honestly!
but without further ado shall we get to the process!

First I start with a rough lineart, I like to do things without measuring it feels more organic that way, I see drawing and painting as a test of your estimation skills

Base coat for the colors to vibrate even a tiny bit

Slap that skin tone on

Now render the lighting and put a rough background as you've got your character semi fleshed out

The rest is just pulling dark and light shapes together and thats honestly it!

A bit more lighting and voila!
