Mystique? Mystique!

Yay! Okay, so I was finally able to get started on my brand new Mystique painting today at work. Well, technically, I got started Saturday, but that was just the line drawing. Me and Allen decided to move the season along by doing some pics of Marvel peoples and such, so check out his page as well for some pretty awesome airbrush work. He's currently working on the Joker.

So, here's my work in progress:



This is the line drawing I made from the original picture. Yes, I did trace it was a projector, but hey, better to get it on proportionately than ugly. Plus, tracing it on is much faster. And.... I still had to draw in the details and stuff myself. I trace it on for correct composition



And here is all the black in for the image. Everything else added on later will be color and white. I really like how its going so far!

Yeah, my camera phone REALLY sucks, so, um sorry bout that.

Mystique and Wonder Woman

With my laptop being rebooted recently, I thought I had lost all of my airbrush files. Luckily, I had backed them up at an earlier time, so they were all there. Yay!

Haven't been personally airbrushing outside of work lately, but I'm thinking about painting a new Mystique in a different pose from the first.


Sorry this one's only in halvsies. Didn't have my camera at the time.

But basically, these are the major steps I take when I do paint "special" pictures. Meaning those other than t-shirts that say "Spring Break 08" in bright pink and yellow.



If and when I do paint Mystique, I'll be sure to take more incremental photos as well.
