Hey guys, wanna watch me do a painting that I've been neglecting to do since sketching the concept two years ago? No?
Kay, I'll just post the pictures anyway, then. The goal is to do it all tonight. Otherwise, I'll turn in at 3-4 am.
10:55 PM after some assembly and prep, I have blocked out the basic composition on a 2x2 rhombus. (I just stretched it as a square, but I'm pretending it's fancier). Building your own canvas is totally the way to go, because you can get whatever size and shape you want.
11:15 PM: Lv.2, Paintbrush blocks 60% more canvas.
I then proceed to talk to Sloth for a few minutes before he goes to bed, and post this at 11:35 PM. WHHOOOO LET'S GO.
12:19 AM: Snow time like the present.
1:30 AM: Resculpted the stone and snow, and finalized the layout and texture of the valley.
Just need to do final details (like patches of snow in the valley) and touchups now. HOME STRETCH, GUYS.
2:30 AM: aaaaaaand TIME.
(Sorry about the angles, I was trying to get as little glare as possible)
Okay, so I'm technically not quite done because I still need to smooth and chip out the reflective snow, but I have to wait until the morning for that so that everything will be appropriately dry. So for all intents and purposes, estoy done.
In approximately 3.5 hours. Goal achieved.
