Previously, I drew 2 Vtubers in this post. This time I'm back to only drawing 1 Vtuber with "some problems". What are the problems? let's see the explanation below.

The tools and apps I use are still the same this time :
Ibis Paint X
Smartphone (Xiaomi Redmi Note 5A)
2 thumbs and index fingers of my hand (I don't use any help, like Stylus Pen. It's different if I have a Tablet, maybe I'll need it.)
[Additional] Built-in Music Player from a smartphone (I sometimes can't focus if I'm not doing something while listening to music)

The canvas size I use for drawing is default (1000 X 1000 px)
Brush for making Lineart, Felt Tip Pen (Hard); 1px Thickness and 100% Opacity
Brush for Shading, Pen (Fade); Thickness and Opacity may vary

The vtuber I'm going to draw this time is Kazama Iroha from the latest generation of HOLOLIVE. I chose her because I wanted to draw with a more dynamic pose, like swinging a sword/shooting / playing baseball. And all I know is that she's a Vtuber who has a weapon (Katana).

Drawing Process (FAILED)

The first sketch (leftmost image) is the sketch that I actually want to realize. However, I had problems with the anatomy that I had not mastered, so there were several repairs. The reason I'm deleting this sketch is that I can't draw a katana correctly yet.
Since I can't draw a katana well, I ended up looking for an example of a slightly casual pose. I took examples of poses from several public figures on their social media accounts (middle and far right). But in the end, all failed. I couldn't focus on drawing because I was distracted by the expression of the public figure.

I was forced to go back to finding and using an example of a pose from Doll Atelier which I have always used in every creation of my Artwork.

when viewed from the pose, ride the Banana Boat might be the right choice. But it didn't occur to me at the time. I prefer to draw the pose as above.

For the Sea image, I used the materials available in the App. You can find it in Material Patterns (Color). (in the picture on the right) Since this is my first time drawing a Sea, I have to choose 5 patterns that match the Sea I want. (Ignore "Classic Wedding Gown")

Finally, I chose Aqua and Surface 02 to make the sea. First, I placed Aqua first and reduced the transparency a little bit (95%). Then I placed Surface 02 on top of Aqua and reduced its transparency by about 64%.

Artwork Result


That was the process of making my latest Artwork. You can also follow my Twitter account to find out what character I'm making. And for the collection of artworks that I have shared, you can see them at "My Artworks on HIVE"
And I did not forget to thank those of you who want to take the time to visit and read my writing or just enjoy my Artwork. See you in my next new Artwork...
