Oh look! Another post so soon! Well this one was inspired by a drawing i saw in Francisco Herrera's artbook. I wanted to experiment with a different drawing style then added my own flair to it.
Started off with semi-rough pencils that i scanned in and inked in Illustrator. I also created the flats and colors in Illustrator. I was going to leave the illustration with black outlines but thought the dark color was sucking some of the life out of her so i went for the softer colored outline technique. I used a combination of gradients and solid cuts to shade and highlight respectively. I added the background elements in Photoshop (just for effect) and.... well, there you go.
I like the way it came out but the more i look at her the more i feel that it can be improved and tweaked. If i don't accept my drawings sometimes, i end up "tweaking" them forever so i'll just let this sleeping dog lie.
