"I bag you" Girl

This is another piece I made as a reference to my friend's blog at Ibagyou.blogspot.com. It's been awfully nice of her to link to my site and I wanted to return the favor. Plus I had been planning to do something similar to my picture from February 21, but more stylized. I have to say that she's incredibly talented, and as you can see, I find her work very inspiring.

Sketch: Zoot suit guy

Just one more character in front of a very lazy white background before hitting the bed.

Sketch: Girl with bag

After some downtime, here's a pencil sketch with some loose digital coloring. I used photos as a reference for the body, trying to get the anatomy mostly right (even with the loose skirt), and added the head with no reference.

Scene: Dream

Weird and a bit hard to describe. Oh well.

Method: Linework in ink, colored digitally. Background added digitally and rather quickly, will need to work on the environment a bit more...

Character: Man in Gray

Another one much like the one from yesterday's post. Again - no ink, all digital. Gone crazy on the filters afterwards, but it kind of works.

Character: Ballsy!

Woo, something new - this time, no ink and no lineart. Done entirely on PC, and of course the newb factor shows. Things like lighting, shading etc. still need a lot of work. But as a first attempt, I think it's acceptable :)

Method: Sketch, coloring, shading and everything done digitally. Listening to: this man here, whom I can thoroughly recommend for inspiration. Great stuff!

Character: The Hobo King

Method: Ink drawing scanned into Photoshop, then massacred with an inordinate amount of filters (weee, filters!). Just trying to get back into the groove.
