Arttober Challenge day 3 - Esdeath from Akame Ga Kill!
3-4 hours on an image is waaay too little. Today I began on the skin to spend more time on it as I didn't want a repeat of day 2's mess.... buuuuut this led to issues elsewhere. I know spending so little time means cannot refine too much, or liquify/transform as I need to. Also it means substantially less layers as I have to remind myself I have a time limit, but still each image feels like a step backwards.

I know if I sunk my regular time into this it would look a hell of a lot better but this is a challenge and I guess I am starting to understand other artists when they said it becomes a choice of what to work on and how long.

I am keen on finishing these all off properly after the challenge is done, but atm due to commissions ongoing I can't sink more than max of 4 hours a day into this.

Hate leaving them in these in progress states.... ugh.

Day 4's challenge is a step away from characters though. The randomiser choose a Wolf to draw.
