Not sure if it may be the same, but I use Krita and the spray brush has give me good results for skin texture, with a wet watercolor for some highlights, I'm still meh at portraits but it does seem to give a decent result

Shading progress~ 🌟✨
This part took quite a while, but I'm happy with how this is looking - next up is highlights, then extra details! 💕

Cool doodle highlights, drew more than I thought no lie

so one big thing that'll make your work less flat is through shading, this artist specifically seems to use a mixture of hard and soft highlights/shadows

circled are hard highlights, where light is bouncing off the skin/clothes etc.

Base/Flat colors down.
Just started color mapping the arm.

Color mapping is the stage when I figure out what colors to use for shading and highlights, and where they go. Got a good bit left to do, but it'll be fun. https://t.co/zQxqd9WaTR

One more layer of the veil and I should be okay to start shading, adding highlights, painting on small details, etc.

Aka base colouring is almost done kicking my ass O(-(

A little behind the scenes process for the undead drivers. I experiment a lot with detail and color before this breakdown happens but the final stage goes: lines, colors, shadows, highlights, final clean up. Wouldn't be opposed to an AI doing that last part haha.

then i take slightly lighter color than the base for highlights, sometimes i add some gradient overlays and the cutesy blocky highlight is optional but i use an add layer on mid opacity for those

They also have custom brushes and it feels nicer to draw with, like how I have been struggling with hair highlights, they have a custom brush for that! And tails? Of course they do!! They have everything under the sun!!! The hair highlights and the tail were from custom brushes💕

i’m quite satisfied with this one (still don’t know how to do highlights, but that’s what practice is for!!!)

For those who asked- some WIPs from the last 2 Pieces. My goal with these was to better control my composition by having most of the painting done in 3-4 layers: Effects, shadows, highlights, and midtones. I drew on top of these layers to find my shapes, then adjusted accordingly

I made a little tweak with the overall lighting: I added dodge to lighten the highlights, added burn to darken the shadows, blue overlay to give a cold effect with the environment (since he has a thick coat)-

Nintendo had a great E3, by far my favorite presentation.

Metroid Dread and BOTW 2 were definitely my highlights, I have some concerns about BOTW 2 but am still very hyped.

Kazuya isn't for me but I'm not mad at him, hope I can get one more character that hypes me though.
