It's my very first time working on a project for so long. I never completed any work that overstays in my draft for more than four to five days. I usually get tired and lazy about it and just always end up abandoning them. But this particular piece was different. From start to finish, everything about it gave me chills lol.

You know that feeling of excitement when every piece of your work just turns out how you want it to look or even better, Artist can relate to this better, and every other person too.
This is exactly the feeling this work gave me and though the project lasted for more than two weeks, I still had the urge and push to get over with it and complete it.

And yes, you heard me right. It took me two weeks and some days to finally decide I was finishing this. It's not like I draw every day during the two weeks and days. I only sketched at intervals bit by bit cause I didn't want to rush over this work. I did give it my best. During those days, I erased and resketch many layers and it is the first time I sketched with so many layers or one as much as it, and this caused my device and the software, in particular, to develop faults, like hanging issues which slowed down the process.

At times I had to wait for the software to slowly load a particular layer and this was a huge pain in the ass if you ask me. I was asked to reduce the number of layers or the canvas size but I didn't wanna do that so as not to jeopardize my entire work when trying to reduce the number of layers or it wouldn't reduce the quality of my work when reducing the canvas size. So I fought the frustration and kept waiting for my hanging device to work again (more reason I need an Ipad or drawing pad😞)

I have a few work processes below, and this is just a quarter of all the steps I took or have in my draft lol. It was such a huge work for me though. Check out the steps and let me know which layer got your attention the most lol.

I am still contemplating minting this or leaving it in my portfolio. Hopefully, I will come up with something because I wanna keep track of all my art and not just leave them scattered everywhere lol.
Do tell me what character you would love to see next time, I will try to get it down as much as I can, and if you need a portrait of yourself too, I am just a DM away lol.
