This will probably be the cover for Post-Mortem, which is my new comic project, revolving around Thaxter and Grimm's story. I've laid out a couple of pages traditionally already, and I plan to finish them up digitally, so I may end up posting those sometime in the future (when I'm not so bogged down with college work, lol).
On an artistic standpoint, I'm pretty happy with the way this turned out. This was my first time using Photoshop CS to this extent (I normally use Photoshop 5.5, but that died on me...) so it was pretty fun getting to know this new program from the ground up.
Some of you may recognize the background as part of a Google Sketchup model that I posted a while back: [link] ...I didn't just copy+paste the whole thing into Photoshop, because I thought that would be lazy. Instead, I took the time to paint over it and match the lighting and whatnot. Normally, I'm against tracing over pictures, but considering I made the model from scratch, I think I can change my standards a bit.
I think I might go back and tweak the logo in the upper right-hand corner. Some of the spacing seems off to me.
Oh wow lol I used Photoshop 5.0 for the longest time(2002-2008) And then, when I got my tablet, It came with elements 6.0(very similar to CS3) and then VERY recently, I was very lucky to be given CS5.5 as a gift =3.
I love love LOVE the way this cover came out. the lines are smooth, and so is the colouring. The characters look fun, adn the logo as well ~_^ Would these be characters from the main story "DreamWorld?" ( just started reading it XD. Just finished the first chatper and prologue)
Thanks a bunch! And no, these characters don't appear in Dreamworld. Post-Mortem's an entirely different comic in an entirely different universe, although I may put some Dreamworld cameos in it here and there, lol.
hehe that be cool too^^ New stories are awesome to read as well! I wanna read one of your stories at a time and am currently at ch.13 in your dreamworld comic(it is making me smile XD)
