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!

Great that you are willing to give us an insight on your personal mini-workflow/process from concept to finished "painting".
I would apreciate it greatly to see more of this in the future, and i think more will agree on this.
Have you ever thought up on maybe recording it through Screenrecording-software, that would be the only thing which will surpass this jawdropping insight.

I've done it a couple of times; I just never remember to get around to it. Maybe I'll jump on the livestream bandwagon some time

phantom660 In reply to ??? [2010-07-13 20:57:07 +0000 UTC]

awesome.

what do you do for color mixing do you just use the brush and work it in diffrent opacitys ?

i am trying to learn to use ps for doing stuff like this

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Mr--Jack In reply to phantom660 [2010-08-02 23:02:15 +0000 UTC]

I pretty much always have the brush on 100% opacity but with it set to pen pressure so I can control it like that.

Thanks
