And here's another little rough warm-up drawing. It's kinda fun coloring these loose sketches without having to worry about them being all nice and clean.
There are lots of ways to do this, but the simplest, and the way I did this picture, is pretty straightforward. I made a new transparent layer (left the bottom layer white) and drew with the paintbrush using pink. I made another layer underneath the pink line layer and filled in the other colors. Then back on the pink line layer I cleaned some parts up and darkened some of the lines with a darker shade of pink.
Oh my gosh, that's even more remarkable! The lines look so natural and "pencil-like", I just assumed that you drew them and then scanned them in. Really nice!
Your illustrations are so charming, I love the rough quality of this one.
ReplyDeleteMay I ask, how did you get the lines to be pink? This is coming from a rank Photoshop novice, I know so little!
HI Carol - thanks!
