Trying out the @nicolas.weis method for sketching trees #visualdevelopment #sketchbook
Closeup of my waterfall moment painting for The Falcon Lore #visualdevelopment project. I was still midway through the painting here as it was more graphic and stylized, especially in the foliage, until I took it towards a slightly more realistic app
