P r o g r e s s
Since my post the other day I followed a tutorial from Mark Brooks and learned more about his workflow. He used a slightly different method when sketching his drawing, but that didn't matter, I wanted to learn how to color nicely on the computer.
He prints his inked drawing and do the shadows with grey markers in warm and cold shades. I did my drawing on a paper to begin with, so I continued shading on paper, before taking a photo of it (I don't have a scanner). Then I transferred the image to the computer and put it in GIMP (free image editing program).
Once that's done, I followed his steps precisely. The results are below. It's just a 10 min sketch so don't judge me too hard on the anatomy..
As you can see I got rid of the ugly grey background color that I got when photographing it, but in the process I lost many of the light shadows of the face. Next time I'll know that I can be tougher with the shading. The program I used is not very good with removing backgrounds. If anyone knows better, tell me so. Still learning it.
And best of all, this didn't take long time at all. An hour or so, from scratch to finished.
