@ajillustrates I love both of these so much... I'm just jumping into it now. Are yours and your son's pages sequential throughout the story?
-
@annastenger Yep- we’re making an 8 page comic, where we alternate pages in the story, so we’re writing and illustrating as we go. Here’s the first two pages: https://forum.svslearn.com/post/149402

@ArtistErin great stuff! I have a tip for night scenes. Put a medium value blue over the entire image and set it to "hard light". Then reduce it's opacity right down. It'll harmonise the colours into that "nighttime" look. You can then erase parts of that layer put to highlight warm tones from the fire.

@MarcRobinson Awesome Marc!! Thank you! I saw in How to Fix Your Art to set foreground layers to a dark blue Overlay and it works in some cases but in this image it came out purplish. I'll try hard light! Thank you so much

An upcoming spread, playing with different sizes within the same sequence. The author wants lots of different outfits/times/places within the book, so I am showing that in one spread here. My ideas of showing that progression, is to make the first spot in silhouette, then developing detail as the eye moves forward. My favorite part of this scene, was redrawing a million sequences from about 30 thumbnails. Might be the longest line drawing I've ever done because I wasn't finding the natural dynamic right away. But I am happy now with the result, and excited for painting!
