First off, sorry for the massive file, but hopefully it won't take long to download. You might try clicking the download link on the left side too, and viewing it outside your browser, because it's a bit wide.

This is a simple walkthrough I created for this piece, Frigid Warmth:


It's not incredibly detailed, it just sort of explains in a general manner what happens in each step, but I thought it'd be nice to show you guys how this stuff comes together.

Also, if you check out my Livestream here, you can watch about 4 hours of this being worked on in the middle stages. The first part I actually talk and give tips, the second two parts are just music while I work. Just click the 'on-demand' button, you'll see the links.

Hope this was helpful! If you have any questions, I'll do my best to find the time to answer them. Take care!

I love all of the tutorials and tidbits you throw up here, as a beginning artist, that's really helpful. Good to see you looking out for the low guys on the totem pole too. :D

This is awesome! And that was very clever of you to add the orange glow... It adds a very nice touch. Thanks for sharing!

I have a question. What is the out door and in door temperature in Celcius? :lol:

On a more serious note, for someone still quite amature in this area, the tutorial only helped me by showing me the work pipeline. To actually accomplish any of the steps beyond the line art and values is a fools venture as five years of doing art has taught me that I am thoroughly and hopelessly incompetent at learning from trial and error. Could you recommend me a tutorial on how to accomplish any of these feats step by step as none I have every found ever went into any form of depth i.e. Teaching me how to detail, shade, and composite the individual components of the image compared to just telling me to do it.

Thankyou. :)
