✨ My first Selfportrait This Year Experience + Illustration Process ✨
( ´∀｀)☆Hi everybody, welcome to my space ✨
Let me show you and talk about how important critics can be. All started when I wanted to make some self-portrait based on myself with a picture or selfie (obviously)
✨ Sketch ✨
When I finish the sketch, all my friends have complained or talked about the hands (drawing hands it’s so difficult to me) sadly I couldn’t correct them because the sketch was too dirty
The only option that I get was make all the draw again. ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ
Suddenly it came to my mind...
Wait… What if I draw her with all the stuff that I love?
✨ Lineart ✨
Thanks to that I felt really inspired again, drawing all the little patches, showing the Magical girl and shipping references, basically talking about myself in the image.
✨Base colors✨
The painting process was really awesome, working with color theory and pastel palette, gave me the feeling that i was getting an avance with my style.
✨Shadows✨
Actually I don’t look exactly like the girl in the illustration but… hey nobody said that you can’t dream about how you would like to be. ╮(─▽─)╭

Nice. You can learn a lot from doing self portraits. Too many and people think you’re weird though.
Yeah , I really need to get better drawing faces in general, btw no matter what you are drawing people gonna talk about it, sometimes it can be a real help C:
