CartoonMike Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 This is a WIP. thought some may find it interesting to see the outlines and the vector version of this drawing. Drew the basic design on paper with pencil. I then inked it with some Microns. Liked it, but then thought that maybe it would be interesting/better as a vector piece. I'll be using Franentoon's texturizer Pro to finish the rendering of it. As it stands, it's more of a proof of concept and therapy over the hellscape that some call 2016. Once I got into the groove, it was quite quick and pleasant. There's boo-boos galore, but that's part of the learning process as y'all know. I'm sure the next one will be smoother and better.

CartoonMike Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 and it's done! Thanks to Franketoon's Texturizer Pro and DAUB's brushes. Couldn't have done this without those bits of wonder. And of course Affinity Designer! One thing I really like about how this piece went was the contrast between the smooth vector outlines and the rough coloring within them. I think this one's a keeper.

CartoonMike Posted January 4, 2017 Author Share Posted January 4, 2017 @Peter: thanks for the comments. The sky was just a gradient between a light bluish and darker bluish color. The clouds were a DAUB brush that I then used the blur & smear tool on and then repeated it and this time used the blur&smear only on the bottoms of the clouds. This 2-pass technique made the sky color a bit more irregular. Happy accidents (TM Bob Ross)!

My Strawberry Monkey Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Very nice, think I prefer the first one before you used the texturizer, etc. Great work though, I guess I'm just use to the simple, clean, flat look as that's my style. Thanks for sharing your techniques as well. CartoonMike 1 Quote About me: Trainer at Apple, Freelance Video Editor, Motion Graphics Artist, Website Designer, Photographer.
