ghost - illustration friday

My first submission to the Illustration Friday site.

Sketched with Derwent graphite 4b, Prismacolor greys and thin lines with my friend, Mr. Pilot P-500.

I've been struggling with coloring the Mariachi sketch in Painter. I'll chip away at it more this weekend :).

mariachi - base layer

I wanna try coloring this in Painter. Wish me luck!

assassin revisited - in color

This is my first attempt at coloring with Corel Painter. I wanted to take this application for a spin, figure out the dense interface and play around with the pens and brushes. I've always wanted to try it, but I never had a wacom. Now that I dove in and picked up the Intuos 3, I have no more excuses :)

See the original pen sketch here.
