Fanart: Tao
So, EM was having "12 days of oppars" or a "December of Exo" or whatever the heck it was, and Tao day was... earlier this week? Last week? I actually started on Tao day and it ended up taking a little over 24 hours to finish given that I had work and stuff. And even then I didn't properly finish. There's not much shading or highlighting, so it's pretty flat. The unfortunate thing is that I accidentally saved the flattened image, so I can't go between layers and stuff. Might as well leave it as it is lol
Anyway, In the end I didn't make it in time. I doubt I would have posted anyway lol, I haven't done so in a long time. It was still a good chance to practice coloring in a new style, based off of this tutorial I found on tumblr where you color the base first and add lines/details later. It was an interesting practice. The art itself was based off of a series of pictures like this, when chinaline were flying back to China for an awards show. Congrats again to Exo for winning, I guess. So many wins this year. Whooo. All colors were lifted directly from Tao pics, although it was hard to find any that weren't filtered so his skin looked lighter u__u I think I got a good tone on him though, but I wish I could have made his hair look nicer. The pattern on the scarf was lifted from a generic knit pattern that I googled tbh, but everything else was me lol
In the end it was fun. I was happy enough with the outcome that I ended up printing it out and gluing it to a letter that I gave Boss when I met up with her a couple of days ago. Hopefully she liked it, even though my printer ruined the color u__u
