For quite some months I've been wanting to make illustrations for the encounter cards in my #Snailriders boardgame. However, I've been struggling a lot with perfection paralysis, so I decided to take a few step back and focus on illustrating some item cards instead. So I did this lantern for exploration during the night. Great opportunity to practice rendering metal! (which I have little of)

And here is the #timelapse. The painting is based of a pencil doodle on paper which I photographed and imported to #Krita
I also used two photo textures for the lense and one for the backgroude. An important tip I got from Hardy Fowlers digital painting studio was painting the greyscale sketch with the brush set to 'color dodge' blending mode, using a mid grey color. This way you quickly get the feeling of reflective metal.
