Something pathetic just happened. While I was editing my video, I accidentally deleted the entire post on Steemit. And even deleted the video I had spent two hours uploading. I need to be really careful next time.
I started this drawing on late Sunday night. Krita has always been a wonderful software to work with, and I already had lots of fun with it in the past. It's the easiest software for me to master and the amount of features it got is comparable to other popular drawing software.
The idea of this come from the concepts of my sketch series. Part of the reason I started the simple sketch series was to develop some ideas that had been in my head for the last few years. I had always struggled to bring my idea to life due to lack of planning and lack of practice. I also think that my lack of skill contributed to my fear of creating something bombastic and meaningful.

I used to use Photoshop for drawing back then, but it's just not for me. I was frustrated with Krita at one point, but eventually it grows on me. Definitely go try Krita. If it's not up to your taste, you can try Gimp, Medibang, Paint Tool Sai and more. But Krita was full of advanced features as well.

That looks really competent!
Full colour up-close portraits are challenging at the best of times for me. It's one of the areas where I find I can spend HOURS noodling around before I get something I can stand back from without totally cringing.
I guess that's a good thing; it's always nice to have a challenge wall to push against.
Anyway.., have you ever tried Clip Studio Paint?
I tried Krita, and while the software package is nicely laid out and has lots of great tools, my computer was having trouble with it; fast strokes on a big canvas resulted in cursor lag which drove me nuts. -Other users haven't had the same problem, so I don't know what the issue was. Maybe something bunging up my OS..? -My computer should be fast enough. Either way.., Bummer!
Luckily Clip Studio Paint works really well on my system. It's lovely to draw with; it has an excellent brush engine which puts it head and shoulders above the crunchy-line Photoshop when it comes to inking line-work for comics. Unfortunately, it's also paid software, but still far less expensive than Adobe products. (I got my copy for around $50 on sale.)

I've tried Clip Studio, but only the trial version and while it work nicer than Photoshop, I didn't want to spend money on it because I seldom draw comics. The way I see it, Clip Studio works perfectly for comic/ manga enthusiasts or creators, but Krita is splendid for illustrations. But we all have one software that we must be really good with.
There was a solution to lagging Krita, which was to disable OpenGL. I never had any problem with Krita. It used to be hard when it first came out, but nowadays it feels natural because the interface is much better.
I seldom draw portraits because it's not really my cup of tea; I've got several friends and acquaintances whose works consists mainly of portraits though. It's a good money maker though IMO because from where I come from, people mainly ask for their faces to be drawn heheh.
