[Timelapse] On Fire | Drawing with the Note 10+

About the reference

This drawing is based off one of Gabriel Sosa's colored gel photography projects called Firestarter. I tweaked the drawing a little (like basically making the model naked) to make it more consistent with Catching Fire.

The photography by Sosa looked engaging, which is most definitely a feat. The dynamic feels to it is so attractive that it's literally what made me want to translate it to a digital drawing.

The drawing

I did as I usually would in drawing (as in the timelapse video below). Probably 90% of this drawing utilized MediBang's watercolor brush while the rest was pencil.

The background (minus the sparks) was drawn in using Photoshop's pen tool (and a lot of Gaussian blur). Then the sparks themselves were once again drawn in MediBang on my mobile with both watercolor and pencil brushes... and a few more Gaussian blur.

Finally, about the hair. I decided to screw it and just draw the hair as I can, with little reference to the original photo.
