Here's a little on my process.
The original was mostly Pencil, Prismacolor, and watercolor.
It's a little rougher but I do enjoy this version.
My favorite was definitely the cat. I really enjoy his personality.
I did some line art to really focus on the shape of the characters:
Afterwards I brought the image into photoshop and really pumped up the color, shape, and dimension. I wanted to get a very vibrant Halloween feel and get a lot of personality out of the characters.
I enjoy all the versions and the final very much.
Thank you, my dear. I'm very honored.
ReplyDeleteThanks Martin :)
ReplyDeleteI love your writing! Looking forward to getting more of your books in the mail.
It's really fascinating for me to see an artist's process, and doubly so when the subjects are my own creations. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
ReplyDeleteThey're no longer merely "my" Halloween Legion, y'know. The World's Weirdest Heroes insisted that you should help take care of them, too. Don't know where we'd be without you. Welcome and congratulations, Princess.
