Another Inspiration Yet Again


With the technique used last time, I have illustrated two new characters. I think they'll work well as children's books characters but I'm still not sure what their adventures would be about.

Another Ono Inspiration


Here I did a painting in Photoshop inspired by a technique Natsume Ono uses in some of her pics. These are my own characters as depicted a while ago in that oil painting I did.

3 Long Pics

More experimentation with the tablet in Photoshop.

For this one I used stock images as the background and cloth layers. I have to mention some inspiration was from Natsume Ono.

This is one of my newer characters from the latest series I came up with. His teammate is found below.

Another Color Experiment




Found a new way to do color images on Photoshop.

The first pic is actually the cover of a book that I made up. I don't plan on writing the book; but it's something one set of my characters read.

Basically the technique is fairy simple. Block in colors, define with highlights or shadows, and do simple line drawings for the face.
I'm happy with it.

Something from a While Ago



So I started this thing a while ago, hoping that I would finish before the summer ended (yeah right, look where we are now).
It's the most painterly thing I've done in Photoshop so far and I really like how it looks. The only thing is I've completely lost interest in finishing it. I'm sure that's happened to all of us, but I was really into painting it digitally.

Oh well.
Guess I'll keep the techniques and save it for a project I care more for.
