If you have followed my works for some time, you probably know by now that I am all about details and textures. Sometimes it takes me hours, other times it takes me days to finish a certain illustration, but for me it's the most enjoyable part of drawing. However, every rule has an exception, and this "New Indian" proves it. Imagine spending three days drawing textures. Now imagine not saving the file. Like, never. (Yes, I do that a lot. I have a superstition that if I save the file, I will never finish it. Pretty stupid, I know...). Then imagine doing everything all over again, you're almost finished... and your laptop dies. Like, forever. And a little bit of your love for texturing dies, too.
I somehow managed to finish this illustration but to be honest, I don't think you'll be seeing details and textures from me in the next month. I will definitely need a break. :)
Have a wonderful week everyone!

THAT'S a nightmare. I'm happy this is done though because I love it so much ._.
ReplyDeleteAbout that superstition... it's not a bad one. It seems to happen to me when I try doing things digitally. When I save something it goes into unfinished limbo...

I love it! I find drawing patterns and textures kind of relaxing... but eep, why do laptops always seem to freeze JUST when you are about to save/finish a big project?!
