Darkroom - FINAL
🕑 Added 2023-04-27 22:34:07 +0000 UTCHere's the (actual) final piece.
As a bonus, and a bit of a peek at my (continually evolving) process, I've included a render of the rough 3D recreation I made in Blender to use as reference for the pose, composition & lighting.
I made it shortly after the colored sketch, because I wanted an easier way to move lights around, see where the shadows fell and find the look I wanted to go for. I made use of some existing 3d character models from an unrelated project, but Reika's head is from a WIP 3d sculpt of her that I'll show at some point in the future (if you look closely, you'll see her actual shoulder & breast clipping through the table)
I haven't used 3d like this in all my art, but I'll be making much heavier use of it going forward. Since it's another skillset in which I have a lot of experience, I can use it to save a lot of time in my 2d art, while still allowing me to maintain a level of detail & quality that I'm satisfied with - especially if I want to make comics and other similarly ambitious work in the future.
I'll be focusing on other art for now, but I plan to return to this background for some alts later on - there's a lot of stuff a couple of college students could get up to on a secluded table like that...
I've also included the "photo" of Jae you see hanging in the foreground, along with a lightly censored variant.
