Not at all, I think I clocked it in around 10 hours...I'm much more comfortable in the digital media than if I were to do this on canvas (it'd take me probably three times that because of mixing paints and generally being all fumbly with it). The process was mostly blocking in the shapes in a sepia-toned sketch, then continuing to refine it by adding in colors and trying to match shapes from lights and darks, while finding key areas for landmarks in order to determine accuracy. There are just too any things going on in my head at all times while I'm working these out, it's mostly "does that match the shade, is the color bright enough, are these negative shapes lining up properly", etc. But I don't bother line-sketching. I just go in at full speed with large brushes to get all of it working together in harmony right off the bat.I actually have the beginning portion of this recorded via livestream! you can watch it here if that helps:
