Description
ArtStation | Instagram | Youtube | PrintsThe past dozen or so paintings I've worked on have been incredibly challenging and difficult to finish - my observation and painting skills feel like they're rusted and stuck, if that makes any sense at all.
Whenever I feel like this I know it's time to get my shit together and start doing regular studies again, no matter how busy I am. After all, the ability to observe is like a muscle, and needs to be trained often to keep itself strong.
With this one I wanted to get a refresh on basically everything I paint often, with a focus on armour rendering.
I've included some breakdowns of the things I remembered/discovered in the process of studying this on artstation , mostly to hammer it into my own brain, but hopefully it can help out some of you too c:

I love how detailed it is! I learned a lot from your advice on how to draw metal and I especially like the intensity of her stare...I also think her braid is really pretty. I love how you combine colours!!

The armor is fantastic, I almost thought it was real though because of the face. I had to zoom in and see the hand before I could even begin to realize this was mere art! And mere, really does this piece an in justice - it is not mere by any means as it is absolutely fantastic. Bravo and well done!

usualy the shoulders are asymmetric, one shoulder, for exemple if the worriore are righthanded the right shoulder are smalest for give a little more ability and the left shoulder a bigger for adding more protection. I also give you a image of armure glove for you

It legitimately took me a few seconds to see that it is a painting and not a photo.

I thought it was real, and then i thought that the person was real and the armor was just drawn on.

Wow, this is incredibly well done. Like a few of the others who commented, I thought that this was a picture. Then I zoomed in and realised that it is not a picture. It looks very real, almost life like, when not zoomed in.

Well, relax. I thought this was a photograph until I clicked through and read your exposition.
