Feels weird to draw with a really thick brush again. Not sure I like it but it made me focus less on little details, which is what you want for a rough concept.
I tried out a new brush this time in this #dtiys for @thesoleil.studio I like how the hair turned out but gotta experiment more 🧪 #DTIYS #art #practice #ocart #artsky #procreate #digitalart
I love it so much! The brush texture on the clouds is absolutely perfect.
The Shark flexstyle is my fast track to a salon-worthy bouncy blow dry This tool is a blow dryer, hot brush, hair straightener and curler all-in-one
Great tit hopping round the deck by my door picking out Zig hairs that have wafted into corners and cracks after I brush him (even tho the main handful goes into a shrub). A whole beakful.
