That's so great! I love the detail on the clothes and the expressive expressions.

Thank you! This is the kind of lineart I enjoy creating, even if I gripe about it while I'm doing it.

You're so good with the details here. Did you do this by hand or online? And either way how did you get the details so fine? You can even see the arm hair!

Digital art on FireAlpaca, but this actually does have the feel of some of my older work which I used to do on paper with pen and then finish digitally. And it's not really detailed in comparison to a lot of artists out there! My comfort zone is lineart, which limits somewhat, and I'm in awe of those artists who REALLY paint in light and colour and add incredible amount of detail.

And to answer the question, I work in very large pixel count and then just downsize for publishing.



And thank you!
