I'd fu**ed up the graphite pass in a big way then fu**ed it up further by working the erasure too hard - but in trying to save it by pulling the whole pass up with a super thin nib erasure - I think it actually looks kinda cool! Just about to blend it down but wanted to capture and share this nifty little transient state ❤️

Super rough tonemap with markers. Going to move in to graphite way sooner than I did last time - see how I go.

First in an 11 part series of pieces.

1 of 10 characters done in a big ensemble piece that is a lighting and shading exercise blown WAY out of proportion. But I'm learning heaps and enjoying the process! Working on this live on twitch after hours (After hours for Australia anyways) - search voxelvagrant on twitch.tv if you want to come hang out :)

It's a thing! It happened! I keep thinking the legends and luminaries who've achieved this before me didn't have to work half as hard because they're all bloody geniuses. But it's a hard test for a reason and I'm incredibly humbled to share the badge with so many people I admire and respect. I love working with Unreal Engine and I love taking it into all corners of the internet to show folks how easy it is to create something amazing. Looking forward to many more years of learning and professional development
