See those dark pencil lines? So easy to work over. May come back to this image to add depth with deeper shadows but as it stands I like it this way.

Baxter and Lunch

Normally I work over inked drawings in Photoshop but I've been having some fun working over pencil. I think I was a little lite with this one but live and learn. Working in value first and adding color through multiply and overlay layers has been very helpful.

Added a red sun and other colors
Need to crank up the light and shadow. Cut them story book stars.

Went with a new layout from my 3D mock-ups
I still like to do my line work in pencil

Color comps and lens flare
Did the lens flare as a joke for my teacher (He hates lens flare) but I kind of like it.
Don't judge me too harshly.

I then made a simple 3D mock-up of the part of the ship we can see and played with angle and framing.

Next I redrew are dude to look more like a spaceman. I wanted him to have the look of someone who has been out there for awhile. Even gave him a Go-Gurt.

Started with this image from a life drawing session. Painted some rough scenes around him until I got a story I liked. I went with this deep space scene.
