I hang around on b3ta.com a bit, and for their recent image challenge the topic was..
“Real life cartoons.
Elmer Fudd pesky wabbit control? President Brain and vice president Pinky? What would happen if you took cartoon characters and put them in the real world?.” So I had to have a go.
Now being a big fan of JollyJack another B3ta regular and creator of “Sequential Art” over at Collected Curios I decided to steal his talent and shop this picture of Kat a character from SA onto the cover of Vogue (she’s too classy for Playboy methinks). This has been my first attempt at colouring anything in an artistic manner for a very long time. I tend to find painting the best way for me to destroy a good picture, and I’m not great at drawing the pictures in the first place.
I cut out Kat and replaced the white with the brown base colour I’d picked and then just used the Dodge and Burn tools to add low and highlighting, using various bits of anthro and yiff from google image search as inspiration. I’m really quite happy with it apart from the hair which I think I’ll re-address later.
Anyway, click the thumbnail for large full colour goodness.
