Quick Satyr Sketch

A quick sketch drawn while clearing my head to move onto other things.


I am thinking of putting it, or similar things onto t-shirts. Like so. (Except a shirt that is real and not drawn by me.)

Red-haired Pixie

I thought I'd include some of the steps involved in making this image, since I like it so much.

First, I draw out the rough sketch idea, using a light grey colour. The idea is to simulate pencils, even though I draw directly onto my computer.


The next step is to soldify the lines and then draw over them on a new layer, in black. (The inks).

Finally, colour and shade to taste. Add background and then we're done.

Alas, that's way too quick a summary of a process that takes several hours over several days to complete. Still, I'm considering putting this on a t-shirt (for women, at least). Baby pink and black backgrounds.

A Little Warm Up

Just doing a little warm up before getting cracking on some other projects. Also, I can't quite seem to get in "The Zone" (elusive thing that it is) for some other things I'd like to work on. Oh well, baby steps during art rehab, I guess.
