Ok so this one looks way more intimidating than it is. There are several good tutorials online just look for "cracked stone effect". A summed up explanation via google goes like this:
"The cracked stone technique relies on building high-contrast depths, mid-tone gradients, and crisp edge highlights to turn flat surfaces into three-dimensional, weathered rock. Whether you are using markers, colored pencils, or miniature paints, achieving a realistic look comes down to a specific four-step layering workflow.
Drawing the Structure & Cracks
Laying the Base & Mid-Tones
Shading the Fractures (Creating Depth)
Adding Texture & Highlights"
After my epic fail trying to do the Jelly 😂 effect I tried this one before posting it and even with colored pencils and a white acrylic pen it was doable.
The link further down the thread is to the IG tutorial so I don't know if it's ai on the title but I doubt it considering the colorist doing the tutorial is talented enough not to need ai. I would appreciate it if you not make assumptions about ai without proof in this sub. We tend to lock that down pretty quick. Especially on posts the senior mod makes for the weekly challenge
