This is one of my crappy first attempts at coloring one of my illustrations. I posted one of the better versions on the first of February. As you can see, I was totally sucking at blending. I still sort of suck at it, but not as much now. Now, I think that I am at least good enough to get by. I'm no where near where I would like to be, but I enjoy the fact that I am not committed to a skin tone or clothing color. ALthough, these are still pretty much the colors that envisioned for my character when I first thought of him.
I think with this particular picture, I was still attempting to use the detail air brush. As a matter of fact I'm pretty sure of it, because I was going by the step by step guide that I had found on line. Of course then I decided to try out a charcoal and I was in love. I am committed to finishing these illustrations before the end of the year. I know I can do it, if I just stop all of the procrastination.
Since my client has not bothered to call me back, I have put his cover on the back burning until he knows what he want. Until then, I am all about getting my own work done.
