This week I decided to paint my OC Natsuko in her younger days, since there will be an arc that covers her past and why she has a split personality. At first it was just going to be a comedy relief, but I decided to make a story out of it lol. After spending a few hours reading about digital painting and discovering the burn and dodge tools, I can say I'm really happy with how this turned out. I think I'm slowly figuring out hair flows using paint, and the dodge tool is amazing for highlights on metal. Just need to keep working on skin tones and clothing now XD
