I always thought villains made more interesting characters. #selfportrait #lighting #chiaroscuro #serious #dark

They are having a tea party!
Artfight mass attack on @silvermizuki @venomous-qwille @chocolateseeds @ilsole @just-a-drawing-bean @nebuladreamz @garbagechocolate @darkxsoulzyx @smoljeanius
Close ups!
Did this attack kill me? Yes. I think I spent more than 5 days on this. Will I do more artfight attacks? Also yes :)
Process under the cut because why not?..
I used a reference photo of some random theater play. And I will be honest that reference literally started it all because it was perfect for multiple characters. You can see similar poses and lighting as well lol
It's funny you can't see Razzle here because I was trying hard to hide from Bean that I included him ahahaha
Me struggling with bg... And all the characters too hahha. Have no idea why I chose such complicated designs together (well, some of them are complicated yeah)
Lined and ready... My friends were like "you aren't going to colour it, right?" Right.
I finished rendering bg first, surprisingly it took me only two hours and one layer haha. I see some mistakes already but was too eager to finally be done with it. Not gonna show bg separately because I don't want it to be used anywhere but here <3 Then I layed out all the colours(the fact that some details died with final render always kills me from inside slightly<//3) and shaded the characters. Each character took me from 20-40 minutes, depending on how complicated their design and lighting were. I was really determined to make every character look good in their own environment, like on close ups, but also to make the whole thing work as whole too.
Funny how ugly it looks without final effects too lmao. The final pic you have already saw. Thanks for attention<3

This came out amazing, if I do say so myself. Not how I initially intended it, but as Bob Ross would say, happy accidents occurred.
