Trying out some architecture…

I feel I am really bad at inorganic things so I need to force myself to draw this stuff. I’m getting more comfortable with landscapes which is still so very unexpected so I figured I’d push myself a little more. It’s been years since I’ve attempted something like this with any real effort because I assumed I couldn’t do it. Perspective? Buildings? HAHAH!NOPE. I have been actively avoiding illustrations with settings like this. P:

I didn’t spend too too long on it. Around 3 hours maybe. Worked on it here and there throughout the day. Used that awesome chalk brush again. Tried not to get too detailed and tried to not obsess over making crisp details.

Included the steps in case they may help someone else out or something.

Reference I used by *Tasastock on DA can be found here.

A bit off from the normal. SWANZZZ FOR MAH GRANMA :UUUUU
+a bit of a progress thing. because sometimes I remember to take screen caps x__x;;;
Anyway- something for my grandma for xmas. She has this HORRIBLE painting I did of a swan when I was 10 hanging over her fireplace. ugh its just horrible. She never misses a chance to talk about it whenever I make it back home. It just breaks me every time I see it even if I try to reason it was 15 years ago- she won’t throw it away. So I’m going to replace it in the night with this. Printing on canvas n gonna just replace it and see how long it will take her to notice + v +;;;;

-COEY!
