Collab Commission WIPs

Step-by-step of how me and =Enaxn worked on this collab!



1. I sketch the commission out, send it to the commissioner for approval, then send it to =Enaxn for colouring!

2. =Enaxn colours the character, adds a background concept/colour palette for me to work with, then sends it back to me.***
_{Check out the awesome! <3 I love how she colours eyes and hair. ;__; Also, the colours she chose for this just inspired me so much. I had to get to work straight away! XD}

3. I enhance the character's shading to make it fit with the lighting. Also, I start to work on the foreground tree, figuring out the placement of the cherry blossoms!
_{Also refined the character like smoothing the shading and adding more pink highlights! Basically, I neatened everything up! XD}

4. Finished the tree trunk in the foreground and started to map out the composition for the rest of the background. (Flat grass is flat!)
_{At this point I also added in falling petals and also adjusted the saturation levels of the character!}

5. All finished now!


***Obviously =Enaxn did the same amount of work as me - I just don't have any WIP screenshots from her! XD
