Picture This: Mona&Su-Mi An arc in a collaborated girl's love anthology, PictureThis By *Tyshea and ~Aibi-Cake
-----
So this started out as me randomly deciding Su-Mi plays a Ukulele (because it's so underground LOL) and wanting to sketch it
OBVIOUSLY IT DID NOT STAY A SKETCH.
But that's okay! because I got to experiment with backgrounds and patterns and textures and-and THIS PIECE TURNED OUT PRETTY AWESOME. YEAH I'M KINDA PROUD.
also I got this done in a day...I am feeling pretty good yay for labor day weekend, now back to the work grind, LOL
Anyway, LOL this picture is when Monica first lays eyes on Su-Mi SO ROMANTIC.
If you know the reference of the title, congrats, you just gained some insight into Su-Mi's personality, and a bit of a cohesive theme in the M&S story

/begin technical jargon that you probably won't care about I'm playing around a lot with Graphic design elements in PT as a general theme...a lot of typography and strong shapes with focus on the characters, bold lines, and patterns/textures. such as seen below *needs to stop plugging this picture omg*
In this piece, particularly, I was trying to keep things generally flat and designed, while still trying to give the environment depth using value changes and atmospheric perspective
I think it's working...and it definitely helped me get a better idea on how I want to tackle the backgrounds in the comic gonna experiment with this some more! /end technical jargon that you probably won't care about LOL

One last little thing from me... Thanks for all the support and notes from the last picture, I am feeling much better, and the issues are calming down for now.
The support is endlessly helpful, so thank you everyone I may not have replied, but I always read all the comments <3
Su Mi looks almost the same as a friend of mine! Like, you change the tattoos, and tweak the outfits, and voila! It's my friend! So crazy, lol. I love your work!
Was the pattern on Su-Mi's tights done by hand or a pattern?
Thank you so much!
Will write that one down.
Thank You again!
Thank you so much!
