Description

My first ever purely digital drawing.

One thing I've noticed with traditional media is that once you make a mark on paper with ink you are committed to that mark; the possibilities become closed as the work is expressed; digital is infinitely tweakable and so can never really be closed; layers allow for divergence, subversion and for the retentive in me to have his head.

I'd planned to make this a painting with colour and everything...old habits die hard and by the time I came to the point I thought i could colour it, my old reliance with working shadows had knackered the possibility. I still have the outline drawing, I might get around to painting this one day.

Inhale; it wont happen soon.

yeah but then there comes a point where the options are so infinite it's just like "lets get something down as a placeholder then we'll revise it." 237 layers later I still haven't drawn a damn thing. Sweet character design there tho.
