SDCC 2011

The convention was amazing this year, and I had a great time. This image was created for IDW's panel on Thursday. They are launching a new KISS series in 2012 along with Archie comics, who also has the license for the name.



And, for the first time here, I thought it'd be interesting to post a scan of the underdrawing that I do on every painting before I add acrylic paints and colored pencils. Staring on a grey surface, weather it be a gessoed surface, or just a grey illustration board, gives a nice, even middle tone to the art. That way, only the color, shadows, and highlights need to be added to the piece to achieve the look I need.
