Moon Flow

October 23, 2008 by Cherise

I don’t upload new art often enough but I did do a neat little sketch last night while I was trying to calm down and go to sleep.

I was thinking about what it would look best as and thought the style best fit a vector. So I scanned it and made a few modifications to the design to fit with the limitations of my skills in vectoring. this is what came out of it.

I’m really happy with the result and even though I have my limitations I felt like that I compensated well. I’m really proud of this.

I was originally going to make her hair black but while I was clearing the blue lines from the sketch paper I had to use the eye dropper and realized the blue that was coming out was very soft and light. I really liked it. It just seemed to fit better than black so I kept with a gray and blue theme. Though black is used its not dominate and most of it is used to draw your eye to the center of the image. On a side note: don’t ever sketch on lined paper cause you never know what will come out of a doodle. Always keep some printing paper stuck in the back of your note book so you won’t have to deal with cleaning up the blue lines later.

The title is moon flow as stated in the title. Sketch took about 30 mins to do since I was doodling on other things at the same time. Vector took about 2:30 hours. I didn’t use a pen tool just the mouse to make the shapes.
