SCBWI June draw this 'camp'

@Braden-Hallett yeah, the GlowForge is cool. I take and scan my inks in into Inkscape and then send it to the GlowForge to cut the plate. I am planning on printing that in black (or maybe a dark sepia). Then the ink that is printed repels the watercolor so they work well together.

I would love to get to the point that I can do stuff like Ashley Wolff... I am pretty sure she is using lino cuts and the color is done with watercolor. I am not that good, yet!

@theprairiefox Reminds me of good printing days -always loved carved lino plate even as I stabbed myself, lols. I like how you have progressed .

[theprairiefox]

@Heather-Boyd my carving set has band-aids in it for a reason! I have bled myself as well...

[braden H]

Tweaked some shadows. Added some more rain streaks. played with some adjustment layers. I think it's finished enough for finished

[Erin.Cortese]

@Braden-Hallett This looks really great! I think you could push the rain streaks even further.

[braden H]

@Erin-Cortese Thanks! I'll definitely fiddle with the rain streaks

[MichaelaH]

@Braden-Hallett It looks really cool, such great work in movement and light and shadow game...

[theprairiefox]

@Braden-Hallett looking very good.

I am getting close to mine. I printed it, scanned the print in and added color to it in Inkscape. Let me know what you think of the colors and the feel.

[braden H]

@theprairiefox You get a really nice woodcutty feel even though it's laser etched! Very cool.

@Braden-Hallett here is my final. After letting it set, I thought that it was too light. Did not have a night feel. So I added a gradient shading so the fire was bright be everything got darker the further away it is.

I have sent it off! My first SCBWI submittal! Thanks for posting this it encouraged me to do this one as well.

[braden H]

@theprairiefox That gradient shadow really works!

[theprairiefox]

@Braden-Hallett thanks, I thought it provided a much better atmosphere.

@Justin-Moss A pet raccoon? That sounds interesting! What was that like? Did it get into everything...and how did you get it? Find it in the woods?
