Description

alright my process

get a huge canvas 300px/in

First I make lots of doodles, generally between 10 and 15 until I find one I like. I then turn the layer opacity down to about 15%

Then I ink and color the flats. my flat colors are on one layer. I lock the opacity on this layer.

Then I doodled a background and finished the rest of him.

All my details go on the flat color layer. I alternate between the paint brush and the fingerpainting tool. Generally keeping the paint brush at about 15 percent opacity and around 20 through 5 size.

I do all my details this way.

I place an over lay layer over the entire image using greens oranges and blues.

I create a separate layer for highlights on his face and the lighting in the background. and the coins on his body.

I sign it really tiny as not to distract from the piece.

It looks stunning but one thing is to make your sig/name bigger!Β 

If there have been mistakes its been alot in sigs. You can make a border and place the nameΒ 

there or create one with less opacity etc. Most ppl wont download your work and youΒ 

cannot expand jpegs so your name will be lost/blurred if its too small.

And trust me, your name won't deter from the drawing much if at all becauseΒ 

of how gorgeous the details are. Just make it visible and just small enough that theΒ 

viewers can read it. Don't treat it like a watermark. If you want less intrusion one on the corner

should do. Lots of right handed artists usually put it on the lower right. The true eye candy is in the artwork andΒ 

that is what we will be looking at most of the time.

I just feel like it takes so much away
you're staring at a picture and you notice something that seems a bit off something that doesn't belong there, a signature.
even if i made it very transparent it would still be there.
it bugs me
