The first one and the last one are all done digital on Photoshop. The second one is pencil and painted on Procreate which I am starting to get use to it. Amazing tool!

LA MORENA | Today some marker drawing and colour tweaks in Photoshop. I was trying a different approach in the style. Also limited myself to just 2 tools: pencil and marker. Then added watercolour for the hair.

¡Pura vida!

LAS 3 MORENAS | STEP by STEP 

Here a quick step by step of how I created these girls. I’ll make the example just with the middle one as it is the same thinking behind for each of them.

1| ROUGH SKETCH: As you can see I rough a lot of lines and try a few times the pose until I get to a point I am happy with. I explore as much as I can. In this case I pretty much got locked the middle girl on the first try but then on the two girls beside I did try a few poses out. I needed the girl on screen right to be walking with her left leg in front so I could have her right arm in front and cutting the silhouette of the middle girl... if that make sense. 

2| 3| 4| BASE SHAPE FOR CLIPPING MASK: For this illustration I used Clipping Masks in Photoshop. Nothing that complicated. I created the main shape for her as you can see in image 2. I used two tones for it, a purple and a brown for her skin. After this on image 3 I start painting the cloth in order to then get the shadows on image 4. There is no big thinking behind the shadows tho. Just a simple like and dark contrast nothing super realistic. 

5| PHOTOSHOP FILE: you guys can see a screenshot of my PSD file in which I highlighted the Base Shape and all the layers above it are the clipping masks. I normally try to label my layer in order to control them properly if any change is needed.  I hope this was somehow helpful. 

¡Pura Vida!

Today some concepts I did last year for a commercial pitch with http://www.passion-pictures.com/usa/animation-studios/

I wanted to play with the idea that they are insane crazy when fighting each other.

Sadly the project didn’t move forward. But here are a few drawings. I’ve always been a fan of their projects and it was great to help them out.

CADERAS ANCHAS | Hi people! Today the drawing I did on our #humbledrawingclub yesterday night. This is the process: 1. I did the sketch with a Col-erase pencil 2. Then watercolour on the skin and hai 3. Then clean up on the lines with a Blackwing pencil 4. Came home and used Screentones on the skirt 5. I then used a masking tape with patterns on the shirt 6. Finally Photoshop to tweak some little things and used Levels to make ‘enhance’ the color. Let me know if you want to know more :)
