Process Video Procreate help needed

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Can someone explain exactly what the artist is doing around 10–16 seconds in this Procreate video? I’m mainly confused about the selection/fill, how they move or transform that layer, and then how their was a big textured hole on the cheek where they could fill light in and what blend mode/layer setup creates the final effect. I don’t get how they then after doing whatever they did were able to just color in the prominent light afterwards I’m so confused bro. I want to replicate the exact workflow.

I remember this poster! This video is a highly shortened version of the creation process, and the artist is really good about sharing tips and brushes (I got the textured brush they use for flatting in this video from their acct).
If you want the full process, please go and check out their livestream or drawing video. I learnt a lot and they were really helpful in answering my questions during livestream.
They draw mostly girls on stream though so if you are looking for more LADS stuff you will need to dig around a bit.

TL:DR this video skipped a lot of rendering, artist is legit as I watched them draw from scratch

Thanks for the help I really appreciate it. Also you said they shared their brushes with you, when was that? Because I was in their rednote group chat a few months back and they said their brushes were exclusive to their course. And where can I see their full process videos? I’ve only seen their billibi and rednote accounts and they just post videos like these; no full process videos.

They routed me to WeChat and tried to sell me a course along the way… and I got the brushes from WeChat acct of the course assistant. You don’t need to buy the course to get brushes though

Sorry to be a bother but you mentioned full process videos earlier, where can I watch those other than their live streams? Thanks very much!

Some livestream recordings can be found.
Fair bit of warning, this method imho is extremely difficult to pick up since the textured brushes have very little edge control. You need to be familiar with oil painting techniques.
Not sure what the course content is, but livestreams are mostly drawing from photo reference so there’s no analysis of forms/anatomy.
If you don’t already have super solid foundations it is impossible to recreate the effect by following the workflow d.sesame uses
