Just got back home from long Sri Sri Yoga courses tour. Moscow - Khabarovsk - Saint Petersburg. During a long 8 hours flight I've done this prototype for @eSteemapp mobile blockchain client.

I've met my sister with her kids in Moscow, then my parents and friends in Khabarovsk, got message that my friend from Pakistan is alive and came back after kidnapping. He was absent for more than a year but he survived and his voice sounds weak but happy. We are all happy for him and hope he will recover soon. During the courses I've found lots of new friends and literally family members. I have not seen my wife for a month and finally met her today.

So this is a month of uniting and family love for me that's why I've chosen these fellas to draw.

### <center>Process</center>

Usually I am drawing rough silouette sketches in Photoshop and after I am satisfied with the sketch starting to do in colors. First using simple shapes drawn with hard round brush, then lock the layer transparency drawing inside with hard and soft round brushes with 3-5% flow parameter adding depth, lights and shadows.
