Slow WIP
-
Hey I like your character, I'm not sure if you want any thoughts I did a quick paintover that might help flatten the road a bit and give your picture depth. Just a thought. anyway great to see your process
-
@jason-bowen thanks for the paint over. I like the suggestion on it. I will make those tweaks.
-
I feel like that sometimes. I don’t do left turns. Get off my back people. I will go when I’m ready! Looks great/ I like the concept. Can’t wait to see her in color!
-
@chip-valecek cool looking forward to seeing it
-
This is looking really great, Chip! Cool take on the prompt--I like your feisty character! I do wish everyone would just chill out, slow down and have a little patience
-
@whitney-simms I thought I was the only one who doesn’t do left turns.
Me, you and UPS. -
Looking great. Thanks for sharing your process. Love the character and the one in the side mirror is a nice touch.
-
Little background on this one, my oldest son gets his licences next week and that is him in the side mirror. Teen drivers are the worst LOL.
Continue of step 5 of the local color and tweaked suggestion from @Jason-Bowen:
Step 6 - color the ink darker then the rest of the local color:
Step 7 - add texture paper on top and set it to multiple.
Onto the shadows and highlights, one of my favorite steps.
-
Here is the final with the lights and shadows added. I will sit on this till after Thanksgiving to see if i need to make any last minute tweaks before I submit it. Any crits are welcome.
-
Since there are more days left, I decided to paint this again in my original style. I will post that one as well and see what everyone prefers. I am undecided on which style to go with. Stay tuned...
-
So funny! My only suggestion would be maybe you could add a layer of mist or haze (or smoke if she’s in California
) between her and the tree/grass layer behind and that would reduce the values slightly on the background and allow your foreground objects to pop more. This is great though – I love the humor in your work! -
Here is my repainted piece and the one I submitted for the contest.
