May 9th, 2009Cartoon Drawing – from pencils to inks to colours in three paragraphs
May 5th, 2009Pencils
Drawn on A4 bristol board with a HB pencil. The basic posture and details are sketched out. More time is spent fleshing out the face and hair than any other part.
Inks
Inked with a collection of fine-line pens with varying nibs sizes. Hair tips are extended and the top of the hair tweaked. Attention is paid to the eyes. The intended black area in the mid-rift and thighs are not filled in with black. This is saved for the colouring stage. Inked work is scanned in at 300 dpi (dots per image).



Colours
Depth is added to the hair. Gradients are added to the top of the boots to differentiate the black footwear from the thigh leggings. Subtle streaks are added to the mid-rift and thigh areas to illustrate the clothing is pvc. And that’s it, product complete!
