I drew for pure fun today for the first time in a long while. I decided to spend some time drawing a character I had been developing a few months back. I’m pretty happy with how it came out.I decided it would be cool to show you all my process. So here’s how it all starts…
This is the original rough drawing. I make a lot of mistakes in my drawing process, so doing my initial drawing this way really lets me be messy and get what I always intended from the drawing.
I then scan that drawing into the computer and convert the pencil line work to red lines like so…
Then I print that off on a sheet of bristol and draw it all again using a 2B pencil which helps the coloring process have a more painterly feel.
And well, you’ve already seen the finished product. From here I flat the whole thing in with simple colors and go to town coloring.
I meant to save an image of the flats, but I had forgot.
is that all? pffft child's play!
