Daryl Dixon Animated .GIF

Here's a LINK to an animated .GIF I created showing my process for creating my recent Daryl Dixon painting from my Walking Dead Series (which you see here)

. You'll notice that I messed up and had to start over. Such is life lol! But I think that it's good for everyone to see the process, especially beginners because it's good to know that everyone still messes up from time to time. Just part of the Journey:)

P.S. If you're interested in buying this print please check out my Etsy Store LINK

TMNT Page 1 Process

So if you're interested I put together a quick little piece showcasing my process for creating Page 1 of TMNT vs Zombies.

After the initial thumbnail stage (which is not shown) I went into Photoshop to do my rough layout. I found it to be really helpful because I could use the line tool to set up my perspective grid, something that is oh so tedious and ever boring done tradtionally.

I then used a light box with my rough layout to complete the finished pencils.

The next step involved scanning my finished pencils into Photoshop at 360 pixels/inch. From there I separated the line art and then began painting on a layer beneath the line art as well as above it. This helps to give a unique painterly colored look to it and a fun hybrid of traditional and digital art.

Finally I used Photoshop's shape tools to create the boxes and lettered them accordingly.

Hope you enjoyed looking at the process :)

Skeletor WIP's

So here's my WIPs for Skeletor. Hopefully this will help some beginning digital painters as they can see the process I use for digital painting in Photoshop.

Jack O Lantern WIPs

This piece shows my process through digital painting from rough line art sketch in Photoshop to final piece. Hopefully this might give some beginners out there one way that you can tackle digital painting, though there are certainly many ways and no one correct way out there. Hope you enjoy!
