Hi guys!

I m currently working on a step to step timelapse video for my followers on IG ,
regarding the stages I go through when making an illustration (digital)
I upload a step every day ,and I answer questions regarding that step.

Here is the first four steps I made , rough concept-sketch-inks-colour blocked.

Finally finished my final prop design project for the prop design class. I like it okay, I guess.

[Heather Boyd]

@chrisaakins the glass effect is cool. The space feels isolated but I like the added touches of the warmer colours .

[chrisaakins]

@Heather-Boyd I had no plans beyond the props. And I got a little lazy and just didn't want to anymore...

[chrisaakins]

I did this as a study for a formal traditional painting but I liked the composition of the study better so I turned it into a digital painting. I am very happy with it. I could see this being on cards or as a print.

@Miriam Thanks again the for the extra time to look at some reference photos - I was actually working on this piece last night and that prompted me to completely repaint that fallen log and I think it looks far better now.

I've since redone a lot of the surrounding forest to help give it some of the correct depth. What I did to change it was to make sure that each tree was just one step up in value so they were more consistent from front to back. I think that helped alot. And I've also since added mist to the scene with some more details.

[aprilshin]

@jdubz Wow, what a stark improvement from you're previous log! Great work!

@chrisaakins I like it! Coloring is great and it looks traditional, has a wc background, pastel feel.

[phoenix yip]

@aprilshin thanks! I’m really excited about it!

[ajillustrates]

@aprilshin Thank you! This one was a lot of fun!

Anyone know where I can find the demo that was referenced in this post?

I recently completed my recreation of the digital painting Will Terry demoed to us in his 3 Day Event a few weeks ago. It was a great learning experiencr to complete this. I feel I now have a process to follow that I feel comfortable with.

[deborah Haagenson]

I don't know where to find the demo, but this was such a fun exercise. I used some of his techniques in my November together piece that I submitted this month.
