Tonight I loaded up another Feng Zhu DVD. I love this guy's wide range of techniques. He drew this piece with pencil on white paper. I worked digitally with Sketchbook Pro being the primary software.
Unlike his approach I can't change the width of the pencil on the fly and drop in broad strokes of value so my drawing has a lot more crosshatching. At the end of the demo I kept on working on the piece by dropping in a warm grey multiply layer and then going over it all with a white color pencil. I also through in a 10% opaque dark green multiply layer to add more depth and color.
On the down side. I've been all over the place with regards to my style of choice for the art in my novel. I think what I'm trying to do is sample a variety in hopes of finding a good blend. Only time will tell.
