This week, I decided to start a new drawing style. My usual drawing style is what I call block style, where I heavily darken the lines to create shadows.
I will still do the same, but now I added a bit more art to my artwork.
For this week, I chose Henchling Enforcer, a Rare Unit that can be used in both the Life and Water Elements.

Step by step Process
I started by drawing a rough sketch. After drawing the rough sketch, I began to darken the lines to create shadows.
When I finished darkening the lines, I thought of coloring the empty space behind the character black to include it in the outline.
Once I completed the outline and the character figure was formed, I started coloring. I decided to make the outline blue for a unique touch and because I had a plan to add an additional art effect.
After applying the colors, I began adding highlights and shadows based on the main color.
I kept the shadowing and highlighting simple, without any blur or smudge effect.
Next, I applied a gradient fill to the outline with black and blue.
For the artsy effect I planned to add, I decided to draw splats and overlay them on the outline. I also changed the blending of the layer to create a color effect with the splats.
I overlaid about three splats on top of each other to achieve the effect.
The Finished Product
I hope you enjoy my art work! Its good to be back. Thank you so much! See you in my next blog :)
