Video time-lapse: youtu.be/JTNKo-HmF3c Been on a roll doing only Fighting Game-related paintings for a bit now, so decided to go back to a series I really really enjoy - FMA.As usual I wanted to create something different from what I've been doing before, so I went for a clean and blocky design -- focusing on a simple colour palette, vibrance through contrast and silhouette. Since it wasn't split up cleanly between layers, once I realized that I wanted the state symbol to be "facing the wrong way" (thematically) it required quite some work to accomplish that, heh. Hence why planning beforehand is key... It is scary what you can accomplish in PhotoShop if you try hard enough though.
