#brain bomber as my lovely assistant for demonstration :}

Hey i wanna respond to this!!! I want to explain the exact technique used on my previous piece if i may!! (Im having some sort of hyperactivity episode let me let meeee;!!!)

using a stripped, cropped version of the original for demonstration purposes

i cleaned him too! :}

Its actually a duochrome piece!!! The only actual colours actively used used were #ff0000 AND #0000ff!!! Just plain old red n blue! With #000000 and #ffffff in there for good measure!

The technique is basically just the various default pixel brushes for krita!! which are... _pixel_art, _pixel_art_fill and _pixel_art_dithering! riveting stuff i know ... but thats how i got the half toning

-not using any blurring whatsoever as to not wash out the pixels

now for the effects, because my lineart isnt teachable for me unfortunately. i used advice from a youtube tutorial i stumbled upon YEARS ago for the chromatic aberration, linked here! the main edits done consisted of

-adding a pure white difference multiplier layer over the WHOLE drawing to wash out the neons, we want this to look grungy and papery

-making sure to use soft light on the grain INSTEAD OF OVERLAY!! the next super secret twist will explain why

-ON THE BOTTOM COLOUR OF YOU CHROMATIC ABBORATION LAYER KEEP IT AS NORMAL- if you want the EXACT same effect that is

put it together and voila! you have this! im a bad teacher sorta but i really REALLY really really am proud of my technique and would love others to tweak and experiment with my jank ass experimental artstyle!
