How did you do the leaves on the tree so well? I've been trying to draw a tree for a while but the bark and leaves are difficult. Plus this is amazing.
HO HO HOPE you become a Newgrounds Supporter this year!
We're working hard to give you the best site possible, but we have bills to pay and community support is vital to keep things going and growing. Thank you for considering!

Thank you! It's easy to start with a really dark blue-green for the tree. I did the silhouette of the all the leaves as a solid color. Then you just start painting on top of that in a lighter green, making little stipples for the leaves. At the end you pick yellow greens to add highlights, but not too many. I'm sure there are other ways out there but that is how I do it.
