The Day of the Dead...in color!

As promised, here is the color version of the Day of the Dead illustration I did. The color is done in Photoshop using a spatter brush and then painting in tones at about 20% opacity. I wanted it to seem a bit chaotic. Like the viewer is actually in the middle of the parade. Also, if you notice there is only one person in the illustration looking at you... and they don't think you belong! Mwaaaaaaaa Haaaaa haaaaa!

Shadows of a Job

So, above are 3 illustrations I did for these guys that are pitching a movie. Sounds cool right? Except they ignored emails when my friend and I had questions (the friend got me the gig). Then we find out (we assume really) that they went somewhere else for the illustrations. Since I already finished these I thought I would share them (especially since I didn't sign a Non-Disclosure). The general story is about a serial killer... or something.

The first version was drawn in pencil, then scanned and then colored in Photoshop.
The second version was inked with a brush (except the house that was a tech pen), then scanned, into Photoshop where I cleaned it up a little and added some color.
The third version I drew the shadow outline and some of the elements inside the silhouette with pencil, scanned in the pieces, assembled them in Photoshop with a couple of royalty-free images I found here, and then using a rough brush with the opacity dropped to about 20% I painted over the pieces. Lots of pushing and pulling with this one!
Please to enjoy!
