-First was the pencil outline (which you can see where i havent painted yet) -then I was originally going to make it by using only vertical lines for shading but decided against it, you might or might not be able to see it in this picture. -then I added some watercolors but wasnt very happy (you can see that in the neck area, which i havent really started yet) - so then i played with acrylics. theres an insane amount of layers in the acrylics, probably 9 or 10 in some spots.
