March 2022 Pinup - Chell

Added 2022-04-02 19:22:40 +0000 UTC

There were a ton of great suggestions in March's pinup thread. Almost too many! But in the end, a handful provided some inspiration and though it was a close vote from the Life Guards, Chell won the day. Those Portal games were so damn good. Kind of a shame that Valve doesn't make games anymore.

This piece was almost entirely done in Clip Studio Paint. I'm still getting the hang of a few things, but there is a lot that I like about the program. The rulers alone are amazing. Also, I feel my line quality is much higher in CSP than in Photoshop. PS does seem to still have the edge on manipulations and adjustment layers. I did cop out at the end of the drawing and import it into PS to make some adjustments because I couldn't figure out how to do them in CSP. There may be a way, I just haven't learned it yet. I really should have watched more tutorials before just doing the thing. But I'm not displeased with the results. More stuff to come!
