#8 WB2 Scene with Words

This one is a bit different than the ones I have posted before. The extra width gives me space to experiment.

Since I am not hurrying to finish this book, I am not working in page order as I have for the last month. Now, I have colored and posted pages 1, 2, 4 (sort of) and 8 (this post), have inked through page 11 or so, and have sketched another 4-5 pages in my Waitbook 2. I like working in my book this way because I can pick and choose what I do at any given time. However, the pages will not be posted linearly as they have been for awhile and I'll have to be careful I don't forget any :0

Have a great evening if you're in my time zone, otherwise have a great night/morning.

Hugs,
Theta

#4a WB2 Leaf Dragon Purple 54

Let me know what you think of this guy. I sketched him in my new waitbook and scanned the inked image. Then I opened it up in Illustrator and traced it. Afterwards, I moved the tracing to Photoshop and commenced coloring. I think it turned out okay, but I won't quit my day job just yet ;D  I am still planning on finishing the one in my waitbook 2 using colored pencils. It seemed to take a lot longer to color this guy on the computer than it would by hand. But there are definite advantages to doing it this way, especially because I now have a vector outline of my image which is extremely versatile. I don't know if I will color more this way now, but I think I will try to get them all traced before I color them. Doing so will give me more options later. A couple nice things about coloring this way is that there are no smudges, no white pencil tracks, and swirling the color is fun. The satisfaction I get from coloring is not there though.

Anyway, have a great and blessed day!
