Portrait of @yusaymon for Yusaymon Appreciation Month (with process)
One of the first artists I met on Steemit was Yusaymon and aside from having amazingly diverse talents in art, music and writing he is a very kind hearted and driven person. He is very supporting of the artistic community and has become a close friend. I made this portrait to show my appreciation! The portrait above is the finished result, I have included some process steps below.
I hope you like this Yusaymon :D
Rough sketch:
Here I change my lines to a warm tone and the background to grey, this is a common recommendation as it helps you judge your values better:
Building some colour and defining light and shadow:
Here's the magic, blending!
A few more touch ups and I added a warm background!
This was all done in the Infinite Painter app. All SBD from this post goes to Yu <3
@vachemorte did an amazingly inspiring trailer in honour of Yusaymon, check it here: https://steemit.com/music/@vachemorte/movie-trailer-for-yusaymon-appreciation-month-i-like-the-guy-so-here-s-my-contribution

I love when you artists show your process, makes those of us with no ability understand how you produce such great work. 😉
