NOTICE: NATE HAS MOVED TO A NEW DEVIANTART ACCOUNT.

My new username is NateSonOfSimp: [link]

I chose my original username poorly, and now the internet thinks my name is "Hugh." Though I hate to have to rebuild my watcher list from scratch, I've decided that this switch will only get more difficult the longer I wait.

Thanks in advance for coming along with me to my new home on DeviantArt!

A page from Project Waldo. The color feels a little timid to me right now -- I think I'll have to come back to this one.

All of the pages for Project Waldo are drawn directly in Photoshop CS3 using a Cintiq tablet monitor. For line work I use default brush settings at 100% hardness (4-pixel width for thin lines, 7-pixel width for outlines).

For coloring, I use the popular Multifill and Flatten plugins ([link] ) to build selectable areas of color, and then I add new layers of color at different blend modes and opacities (this is a pretty random, haphazard, and slow process).

It usually takes me about a week to get a single page finished. Part of my reason for attempting this project is to learn ways to speed up my workflow.

Project Waldo will be released in 24-page installments beginning in 2010. For more information, and to sign up on a mailing list to be notified when the first issue comes out, visit the Project Waldo development blog: projectwaldo.blogspot.com.
