02/02/2020 Fist Wacom Painting!

Today I started my very first attempt at digital painting. In class, we were assigned to find a photo of someone you would like to attempt a portrait of. I chose my boyfriend! Above you can see the first stage of the drawing- the line art. 

I then began to ass some intense tones and small amounts of highlights. I used the polygon tool in photoshop for the first time- selecting an area to quickly fill up space was really beneficial compared to color book drawing. This is my complete greyscale! :)
I then wanted to take this assignment a little further- and see if I could add some life to the greyscale portrait. I LOVE colour so I chose to take it a step further for my own benefit. I believe the blue and salmony orange colour really contrasted well- and really made the shadow parts on my subject pop!

TPS colour comp 2

This is my final adjusted colour comp. Our prof told us we had to incorporate a real-life texture/ photo- so I decided to add an oil paint texture to the overall piece. I played around with having white bricks in the background or I tried having everything look like it was sewn/ outlined- but I really thought it distracted the cleanliness of this little piece. I was happy enough with the subtle change with the oil paint- so that's what I went with :)

Story Board-colour!

This is the second part of my assignment for storyboarding the grim reaper- but with colour! I had lots of fun playing around and using the digital brushes. I believe I was pretty successful at achieving what I wanted- just still getting used to how the layers and digital workspace works. If I could add anything- I would print it out and go ontop with my pencil crayons to make it more crisp!

Colour Story Board!

This is my final coloured Thumbnail! I incorporated hospital colours, added skin tones, added environmental details and realistic colours you would see in a hospital environment. This was a really fun project- and although I'm still struggling a little bit with adjusting to the Wacom tablet- I feel myself getting a little more used to using it! Thank you :)
