Description
I definitely used the fewest number of different shades on this picture than any of my coloured pictures from at least the past year. Still, I think this has turned out pretty well for the most part. I think I chose a good colour for his fur and tail, as it's a nice kind of subtle dark blue. The red part of his costume is pretty basic, but I think it came out pretty well. The smoke is probably the most complicated part of this, as I built up a few different layers of purple to give it a swirling sort of natural look to it. I think it works, but I used a pen that was a bit more of a bluey-purple than I expected, so I had to cover up most of that, but I think the bits that peek through create a suggestion of a difference in the density of the smoke in various places. So on the whole, I think this has turned out as well as could be expected.
