Designed a back tattoo for my Corpo/Assassin V who works for Arasaka.

I wanted to incorporate traditional Japanese depictions of an oni/demon, as well as elements of Samurai armour that we see in Arasaka’s soldiers.

Here’s what I’ve ended up with so far:

After roughly 8 hours, I’ve finished recreating another Magazine cover with my nonbinary Corpo V! 

This one was alot of fun, and I love how it turned out:

For the process behind this piece, as well as a brief write-up and a colouring timelapse, check under the read more!!!

Of course, I’m still having to redraw/draw everything myself, but having the base there as a reference makes the process alot quicker.

For this one, I changed a few minor details, but also completely changed the colour palette. The original was a mix of gold/red/navy blue, and that just didn’t scream Cyberpunk to me, so I went with what I call ‘soft neon’ which I feel fits the vibe more.

Here’s the condensed process:

You can see I only coloured in one figure at a time. As with the original, I was drawing duplicates of my V. So I just had to render one at a time, then copy/paste and flip.

One of the many joys of digital art! I did toy with the idea of a brighter colour scheme for the hair, but ultimately ditched it for the white.

I think that was a wise decision, as it better fits the sleek/avant garde feel of this cover/piece. And it keeps the focus on the outfit, which I absolutely loved making my own.

Here’s the timelapse (warning for flashes of colour):

Unfortunately, I’ve been having issues with the quality of the timelapse videos from Procreate. Should be fixed now; I sorted things out as best I could after finishing this piece. 

Regardless, this gives you a more extensive look into the process behind my work.

Making progress on my Corpo/Assassin V art, and falling in love with this Nonbinary badass in the process (WIP)

Yes, they are so extra that they have an expensive/luxury cigarette that’s filled with gold leaf
