Continuing from my previous post: I am now recreating the skeleton puppet front view. I turned to my favorite anatomy book references and worked first on paper. I like to use colorful markers or highlighters, starting with yellow, building to darker colors. I add white to block out where I can the parts I'm not keeping. This sharpie is oil based and didn't work as well as a posca pen, but that's okay. It's just process work. I then go over that with tracing paper. After the tracing paper, I scan the line art. Then I put it in Photoshop. I straighten the image out and create a new layer for the next step. I used the vertical symmetry option via the butterfly icon in Photoshop CC to create a mirrored drawing. That's the last step in Photoshop. Next I need to recreate it in Adobe Illustrator. You can see how much my drawing's improved with photo reference and using the symmetry tool. Illustrator will give the puppet scalability for the final digital line artworks. The end stage of all 78 tarot cards will be pen and ink.

Skeleton puppet update. This is a work in progress digital sketch. It has been a process of back and forth between paper and computer. I started out using old art with my Tarot project, but soon realized I needed a cleaner way to create the skeleton figures in my card designs. I opted to design a puppet. It is a digital skeleton I'll be able to pose for each drawing. This is the photoshop front view skeleton. I'll make a front, back, side, frontal three quarter turn, and rear three corner turn. So 5 total puppets. The process involves using photo reference to sketch on paper, scanning the sketches, and then redrawing the art in photoshop. Once I'm done with that, all 5 skeletons will go into illustrator. That's the final step for these puppets. Then I need to recreate the 2 of cups, 3 of cups, and so on up to the six of cups. That's where I catch back up to my previous work. I'll then continue making the new designs using this puppet and stop using the old skeleton I had butchered from an old drawing. I've got 78 cards to design, but the process is stalled on these puppets! Keep an eye on the progress!
