I don't have a scanner (yet) so I digitally colored the photograph of my sketchbook. I like the photograph of the whole page. With the drop shadow, she looks like she could leap out of the book. As much as I want to get away from the computer and into paint, this makes me feel that maybe digital illustration is in my future.
The sketch followed by the transparentlayers of color in Photoshop (with dots for eyes).
Wow, this is lovely. Such effortless movement and perfectly simple.
ReplyDeleteGreat character and movement. Really effective use of digital colour, very clever :)
ReplyDeleteShe does look like she's leaping off the page, reminds me of the way they did the Roger Rabbit movie.
ReplyDeleteThis is really nice. And I love the fact that you photographed the notebook. Very cool.
ReplyDeleteSweet and simple. She is a wonderful character.
