Colourised

And here it is finished with colours:

Another inking exercise.

I did another draw over for a friend of mine, this is how it turned out:

I'll colour this piece in soon I think, there's some things I want to practice.

Griftin, about time!

This took literally ages to get finished.
Primarily, this was only ever an inking exercise. I feel like this is a complete mess!! I'll probably still colour it though. :D

Keep an eye out for that.

Inking exercise


Another inking exercise, this time of my gorgeous sister Alison. A great subject to practice different tones of hair colour. I think for the most part, it turned out ok.

Woops

I accidentally deleted the sketch for page 14. Here it is again.

Colours OVERLOAD


AAAAAnd, the colours. I wanted to touch on this really quickly. This is by far, the hardest page I've had to colour so far. There was a lot to it, and I don't really like the way it turned out. A little bit too busy I think. Better luck next time. I think the main thing I took away from this page was, keep it to the elements. Simple is better. Ok, till next update, i'm out.

The inks, took SO LONG


Here is the inks to page 14. This took me quite a long time actually. I am still getting the hang of the new style of inking I've adopted, it's getting there but I'm still not quite comfortable. You'll notice, sometimes the lines fall a bit flat and the weight clumps together. I'm getting there though.

Page 13 colours

Here's page 13 all done. I forgot how long shading takes...

Page 13 Inks

This is just a new page to chapter 2 of Clutching at Straws I've been working on in my spare time. The page looks completely different to page 12, I'm not sure if that'll annoy anyone when the book goes to print, with continuity of style, but oh well!! I'm doing this to get better.


I think it's going to look exceptionally good when I get the colours done.
