Sucker Punch – SteamPunk villain

OK. I was going to continue posting each step of the process day by day but my illustrations are getting quite complex now so it would end up taking ages. So now I’ve decided to keep things simple.
The new slogan for my blog is simply: Sketch, Ink , Colour. Now you can expect to see three images per illustration. The sketch, the inks and then the colour. Hope you enjoy.

To be honest the face was quite easy to blend… I enjoyed it. Now on to the helmut.

The pipes took a while but I was able to zoom in and it made the blending process a lot easier. But its important to zoom out every now and then to see the bigger picture.

Right so the blending begins…. I’ve begun mixing the leather jacket. I’ve removed the contrasting colours and kept the complementary colours. I’m going to mix them as the base and then add the contrasting colours later.

Here you see that I’ve added all of the colour values. Now I will start the blending process.
