Catch-up Time

You know, I was doing so well at updating regularly last year before work really started dropping on me like piles of bricks. Here's some updates on that thing I was drawing.

Color to another character.

Reduced the size of the troll, corrections to a pose, a few touch-ups on colors.

Costuming!

Lines.

Colors.

Costuming. Removed a figure for the preview; the wing covers a chunk of the troll.

Color! Also some line for the critter, with some changes to the tail.

I need to get back in the habit of updating more again.

Cintiq!

After a long, long time saving up for it, I finally have a Cintiq. And it is wonderful.

Everything feels so much more natural, and I've been playing with the new hardware with that character height chart when I'm not working. My hours have gone back up lately, so it's been a good chunk of my time.

Time for some progress images, then.

 Before the Cintiq arrived.

Costume change.

Cintiq arrived; started playing around with it by doing some finished lines.

Next, explored some sketching ability while trying to fix the pose of the troll.

Removed two figures to work on the elf. Also noticed some mistakes on the troll and put down a note. Whoops.

Fixed some pretty glaring problems on the elf, sketched on the troll's arm (still have fixes to make there) and played around with some flat colors. Excited to get to rendering, it should be a lot of fun on this monster of a tablet monitor.

I am so glad I decided to buy this thing. It's a fantastic tool for digital work.
