I am clearly blind. Colors are totally wrong. I used desat red instead of a nice toasty orange, among other things...
I started this aiming to use as few strokes as possible. 10 got me no where so I just freestyle blocked stuff in. I like the result, like painting with a roller.
Bladerunner study. I overworked it. Really trying to simplify this and not noodle with the small brush.
no time for a full Payne study so I took a snowy Game of Thrones still and did a value study.
Edgar Payne study. Trying not to color pick until I'm done to check how close I get the colors. Not doing well yet but the values are pretty close when desaturated.
