Description Another Gangsta fanart. I think I am improving a little. This time I decided to try to draw more than just Alex. After looking over the manga for a while, I realized that the drawing style for both Worrick and Nic is so different from the style how Alex is drawn. It looked to contain much more lines and angles where more rough. Anyway, I tried my best to mimic it.

The scene: sunrise. I thought that Alex probably has never climbed up to the rooftops and never probably seen any of the magical sunrises city of Ergastulum must have. So, I wondered.. what if Nicolas woke Alex early and asked her to come with him, helping her up to the rooftops.. It is windy up there, late in the autumn. Nicolas offers her his jacket, gentlemen as he is, as she is freezing in the strong wind with just the white dress she is wearing. And they wait, until the sky starts to have color. Low pinks and reds at first, but then the sun comes up behind the red roofs of all those little houses in the city and magical golden light covers everything. It is probably one of the most beautiful sights Alex has ever seen. She is amazed by it.. She has never seen the city in that kind of light.. never thought about Ergastulum as a beautiful..

In some way, it is the most perfect gift he could ever give her.. - moment of beauty and hope, reminding her that sometimes when you look on things on a different light or perspective, what you be surprised. For him, it is a stolen moment. Time just with her. So close, that he could feel the amazing smell of her hair.. To see that surprise on her face. Almost see the tears of snappiness forming at the corner of the eye..

It is a start ofย  the brand new day.. autumn leaves flying in the wind..

Very nice work. I've followed your work for years, in fact, you were one of my first inspirations. It's like a breath of fresh new air now to see you go in another direction and see you progress at it. Btw, are you using a tablet, or are you drawing with a mouse?

I have been using a tablet from the start. Oh my, it is almost ten years now.. same small and now very old tablet.. that keeps working as I have taped it and done 100 magical tricks.. It is somehow so convenient and I have become so used to it that it feels wrong to replace it with something newer or better..

And I am really glad you are enjoying this "new direction". I love the challenges this has been put in front of me.. I would love to do manips too but currently I am only able to use my laptop and sadly it does not manage very big files So those drawings are just the right size to manage it

Heh, I have the same story with my tablet. Small, outdated, taped where a part was broken (courtesy of my unruly nephew), but alive and kicking despite everything, its loyalty is so touching I don't think I can ever get rid of it.ย 

I believe having been limited by tools of trade is the best opportunity to push your skills forward or discover new ones altogether. Keep it up.

What kind of colors did you use to make this. Like did you use a certain brand of color or something else. I have been trying to get these kinds colors but haven't been so lucky.

On the sunrise feeling, I used warm/light yellow, yellowish orange and orange like red. So, I had three colors and I used brush with pen sensitivity for opacity to paint the lights. I also changed the layer mode on light layer to "soft light" - that might be the trick you are looking for?
