A fairly straightforward commission - WW1 US Army Doughboy. As I'm fairly inexperiences with backgrounds this was definitely a bit of a headache, especially since I wanted to obtain this calm, sunny, peaceful trench on the green hills of France. I really learned on this one that I paint waaay too dark - all the subtlety I want to put into the shadows just doesn't show in print, or on mobile. So I made the decision to not go under 10% brightness anymore, lol! Especially in sunny summer scenes like this one.
Feel free to let me know what you think :) If you're interested in commissioning me, I'm open! Feel free to check my prices here: https://inkbunny.net/s/1443684 and send me a note. Thank you for checking out my work!
