The process of my illustration

Once I had got all my ideas together and decided what I was going to do for my Illustration, It was time to start the real illustration. I had photocopied several pages of my final figure, this was because I had to use them as a stencil for different areas of the figure as I wanted strips of neon in between the matte black areas.

 So I firstly started off by cutting out the areas that I wanted to black paint to be in, I then scrapped the paint with the plastic in the areas that needed it.

 I came across a small problem while carrying this process out, the paint ran over and leaked into areas that it wasn't suppose to be in!

 This was a problem as it leaked over to the areas where the neon strip was going and it didn't look slick enough for my theme.

 Therefore I re did the stencils and made sure I stuck down the sides so it didn't let the paint leak over.

This made the neon strips look a lot better and slick.

I then added on a penciled arm and pen slinky bracelet.


All that is left to do is scan this illustration into photo shop and work on placing a neck and head onto the body and also giving it this motion effect that I wanted. Its hard to explain but if I show you a picture of a moving train and the light streaming off it, then you will get my idea. (Hopefully)

So I want the beams of light coming off the neon strips on my illustration. This process is my next stage of my illustration which will hopefully be carried out in the next week but I will post it straight away once its finished!!
