I'm getting close to finishing the coloring of my next art, so I'll post a small clip with the evolution of the sketches.

Tomorrow I will most likely post the art in its final form. At the same time I finished the sketch for the third art and I will start coloring it after I finish this one. The video with the sketches of the third art will most likely be posted the day after tomorrow and the final form the day after that.
