So what some of you may notice is that my drawing style is pretty consistent but my art execution varies. That's just because i can't make up my damn mind!
So here is another entry to the 1 Up You Blog. I had the idea of how to defeat Betty Beer Goggles (see website) but i just couldn't draw it. Man, some of the thumbs i drew really stunk. Then my mind kind of drifted off as i was drawing and out came this version. The rough you see on the left is actually 1" tall. No joke. I liked it so much i scanned it in and increased by 600% or so.
I didn't want to ink with microns this time because i wanted a more organic feel so i just did really clean pencils. I scanned those in and just change the mode to black & white then darkened the lines to my liking. From there it was cake using the Prismacolor markers (which i love!!).
I will tell you guys one thing... When i print out the black & white drawings that i'm going to grayscale, i print them on color laser paper. Sounds weird right? Why print a black & white drawing on color laser paper. Well, i'll tell you. For me (just a preference) the thickness of the paper and the coating of it really make the markers glide on smoothly and prevent excess bleeding of the grays. If anyone has used Prismacolor markers, you know what i mean. The final version at the 1 Up You Blog has more details added as well as type so go check it out!!
