Here is the second part of “Yoshinori Shizuma Illustration works of Marginal Operation” at pixiv Zingaro and Shizuma has demonstrated and drawn one of the main characters Jibril in maid costume.
It was an intercative talk event with the auther of Marginal Operation Yuuri Shibamura and the editor Moegi Hirabayashi, and Sizuma started drawing while they talk about the work.
He started from the rough sketch and traced the lines and painted over the figure very precisely. All the audiences could see how he draw from the scratch, and he looked very relaxed as it is an natural thing to do.
He used SAI, the popular digital painting software, and traced lines on the rough sketch, and cleaned up the canvas.
He started painting after set the gray layer on the figure.
At this stage, Jibril lookes already so cute.
