Time taken doing this: about 8 hours

Digital art app used: MediBang (it's for free and I did it on the laptop, I'm sure you can get it on iPad too!). I did not use a stylus either, just my finger. It's not the tools you buy, but how you utilize what you already have.

1st Layer: sketch

- pen 3 size 60% opacity

- starting out with lighter colours is much easier, but I started out dark for this one

- sketchy lineart does not matter that much, you're going to delete this layer at the end anyway— use use it as your base at very low opacity

2nd Layer: convert to 8-bit

- Layer>Convert>8-bit for gray or black scale

- watercolor 70 opacity

- black and white for everything

- ETC: eyes, teeth, clothes

3rd layer: overlay layer

- overlay for a vibrant effect

- airbrush big size, high opacity

- background pops out

4th layer: add layer

- makes darker colors lighter

- airbrush for skin

- lower opacity

- use eyedropper so that skin matches, to capture colours on your screen again

5th layer: overlay layer

- enhance skin brightness

- airbrush for highlights

- also use for shadows

6th layer: skin, outline of eyes, ears

- use eyedropper to capture nearby colors

- oil pastel 50% for skin, then blur it 70%

- add highlights on forehead, nose tip, cheeks, chest (airbrush)

- outline eyes with black watercolor paintbrush

- choose colour slightly similar to the background to create lighting effect in the eye using watercolor brush

- highlight side of nose and inner parts of the eyes

- eyebrows: pen fade in fade out 4.7 size 58%

- smudge tool smooths out harsh edges

- use watercolor for ears

7th layer: overlay layer

- just keep adding highlights

- watercolor and blur

- airbrush for sides of eyes and blush

- you can add to this layer near the end too

8th layer: hair details

- pen fade in fade out for strands

- watercolor for the base and highlights (blur)

- oil pastel (also use blur tool and smudge)

- keep adding and smudging

9th layer: dodge layer (ultra vibrancy!)

- airbrush 100%

- my personal favorite layer

Get rid of layer 1

Add extra details on new layers

- lighting, highlights, vibrant effects, etc

- bottom airbrush for lightning

- white streaks/lightning/mark on face)

Signature

- go to tools then text

- choose a font and size (you can always adjust it afterwards)

- or just use a pen brush to sign your name

I hope this helps you! Also, drawing Midoriya is so fun, I usually just sketch him in 2-D on paper so making him digital is a new experience! I have still a long way to improve— PLUS ULTRA!
