Okkaaaay! This one taught me a lot about my weaknesses as an artist, and showed me that patience and persistence can improve a piece of work tenfold! I learned this lesson from another artist whose beautiful paintings took him hours upon hours. While I did not spend as long as he did, I did slow down, and hopefully I"ll gradually improve.
It's the second rendition of my old idea found here [link]
This is just to document my improvements and I think I succeeded.
Credits: Work was done by me. As for references, I used Harbinger Wounded 2 so I could proportionally get the Knight's pose, and I used Landscape 36 and [link] have amazing stock so check them out!
