Artwork: Sora and Naminé

Sora and Naminé chilling together.

This picture was a right pain in the ass. Anything that has to do with color always is. I couldn't get my shading with the black brush to look right, so I decided to use color for depth. I forgot how much work it is to actually use color. The thing that annoys me most is when I finish everything, it's too late to make dramatic changes. There's something off about the picture that I can't put my finger on. Naminé's face is weird, and Sora's arms are out of whack. I definitely gotta practice more. Maybe I should start using the pen tool for later pictures.

Artwork: Sora and Kairi

I usually draw on paper first for my rough drafts, but this time, I decided to do everything in Photoshop. From conception to final production, everything was done on the computer.

Artwork: Sora, Xion, and Moogle (Hotel Hearts)

This photo is rather simple compared to the amount of time I put into it. This took me over an hour to complete. I had some trouble because I forgot how to line stroke the pen tool. I felt like an idiot when I realized all I had to do was change the pen tool setting.

Artwork: Sora (Love Sick)

 

 For this drawing project, I decided to draw Sora from my story, Love Sick. In it, he suffers a serious condition where close proximity with girls activates his gag reflex. Simply put, girls make him sick. Due to story details, I made him wear a generic white tee. The hand over his mouth is to keep himself from throwing up. I tried to make him look "cool," and at the same time, have him troubled. I think I succeeded on some level.
