◆ May 2018 GIGAZINE Manga Awards Top Illustration
In this top picture illustration,To doI wrote it. A senior who stops to be sucked into a fantastic scenery, it is one piece that I can not keep an eye on every corner that stirs up the excitement for the world I have not seen yet.


Author'sTo doThank you for comment.

Nice to meet you, I say Always!
I am very honored to have posted this as an illustration of the top picture ... ....!
I like illustrations with story and fantasy landscapes. I like cute girls with gothic lolly costumes. As you write whatever you like, it is going to be a ridiculous number of characters, so I will stop around here.
I always painted while exploring various patterns, who this person is half a year or a year later! What? Although it may become, if you have a chance to see my illustration, I am very pleased to write my impressions etc.
I usually work on Twitter and pixiv etc. Since the thing which is drawn is generally listed on these two sites, please see if you are interested!


In the rough draft, the background like a girl with a journey and ancient architecture attracts attention. Oh yeah "As a result of being troubled with the illustration of May, the theme is decided by a traveling photographer (zero season feeling.) Illustrator has the scenery in the head, the photographers have what is in reality, I think that it is cut off from the best angle.I think that it is somewhat similar but it is a rough picture.The color roughly decides and adds silhouette appropriately.This work is the most enjoyable It is dangerous. "


The background that became more detailed and the sister who was sister than I thought. Oh yeah "I will bring up the line drawing based on the rough.Overall it is OK.This work is so long that it is a game against the spirit.When the drawing is completed, separate the character and the background in the selection range from there. It is a flow that paints the primary colors and adds environmental color to them. "


Oh yeah "First of all sky, building ... When drawing from what is located in the back, it draws like that because the sense of air is easy to grasp.If you finish painting to a certain extent, integrate the line drawing and the background layer, I am working as a layer, because there is a person in the middle, I do not have to draw it. "


Oh yeah "I will paint the nearby buildings, the way we do not change, work on and on one layer as soon as you put some color"


Abeba "I will paint the person in front of you the most.I think personally that my eyes are the most important.When I finish placing colors I will paint it as one layer and paint it. At this time I changed the position of the person slightly.I want to say it is completed for the moment, but I still have something to do. "


Oh yeah "I add my birds and buildings behind me to make a volume feeling"


Oh yeah "The color adjustment, the atmosphere of the illustration gets rolled in here, color is important as well"


Let's do it "And then I made the saturation even stronger.This is complete.Thank you very much!"
