i dropped into the sc2 copaamerica stream on the last game of the night and i found out they were doing a giveaway for a hearthstone key. i dont really like hearthstone but i thought it would be cool if i could give a shoutout to my friends and showcase my art. unfortunately i only had 15 minutes to come up with something so i ended up doing a rushpaint. it was really interesting to see how i dealt with the pressure. anyway heres what i managed to come up with in 15 minutes.


a portrait of rootcatz of the professional starcraft team rootgaming on of the competitors at sc2 copaamerica.

You've been working hard since you started the sketchbook and that's a good thing to see, keep it up.
On this last piece I would advice is to don't render the background so much, using small brushes on the city is taking the focus away from where you want (the action).

[vymnis]

Thanks for the advice rafa zanchetin. I enjoy doing architecture as well as figures so finding a balance can be pretty difficult.

[vymnis]

streamed the progress on this today. was a pretty fun experience made the process seem to go alot faster.

[vymnis]

hand studies from today ide like to do alot more hand studies until im at the point where hands become second nature.
