Description So, about 25 or so hours overall, colours done in Photoshop CS3.
Feel free to ask questions, I'll try to answer them.

Final piece is here -

with some others.

NOTE: this isn't a tutorial as such; i worked out a pretty solid method while working on these illustrations (I ended up producing more than 20 of them) but I've since changed my process a fair bit and always continue to experiment, but either way I hope it's helpful.
Enjoy!

Do you leave your lineart on top of your picture the entire time or do you ever get rid of it? Also, What kind of layers do you have in this? Just wondering... Looks amazing btw

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Mr--Jack In reply to ArdentMind [2010-08-02 23:14:44 +0000 UTC]

I always keep the linework layer there as it's a good way of keeping shadows dark, but I start painting over the top of it fairly early. There are some adjustment layers but for the most part there are about a dozen layers that have been painted on

Hey this is amazing process, i want to ask you something,did you do the rough linework in paper? or you did it with your pen tablet?and what about the tighter lines did you do it with your tablet in PS??, sorry a lot of question, i just want to learn

Thanks before

Mr--Jack In reply to HappySadCorner [2010-08-02 23:09:26 +0000 UTC]

No, it's all digital; the first linework stages were done in a program called Sketchbook Pro, which is great for drawing like that.
