Willis Henry Key Image Color Test




 Willis Henry Illustrator Color Test.  I'm using alternate version of the Willis Henry ThumbsUp pose to test out colors. The hardest part is finding color combination that look good to you, out of the near infinite colors of the digital world. 

Once I find a color scheme I like; then I lock them in with the color swatches beside the character. Then, I can copy and paste the swatches into the other character project to make the process easier in the future.


Have a happy weekend

See ya next week

Willis Henry Key Image and Title Clean






 Key Image and Title experiments complete!  It took some time but these came out nice. There are tweaks,  revisions, and clean up... but I'm proud of the progress.  Done in adobe illustrator for clean vector images that can scale.

Next up is adjustment then colors, but for the blog let's get into some comic pages...

Keep Shining!

Willis Henry Title (Work In Progress)




 I have been on the struggle bus for a while with this Willis Henry title design.  This one has been so hard, but I think the corner has turned. Thank Goodness.

I have an example of the Beautiful Beast Kiss title design, which was so much easier to concept and design and seemed to come out fully formed...

As for Willis Henry I think the title design ideas are coming faster, so I think I got it. Now it's time to polish, tweak, and think of variants.

Onward

Heroes Key Image Illustrator (Clean Lines)




Next step for the Key Images is the Clean Lines; for this I use Illustrator, because not only are the lines super clean, but because the lines are vectors I can scale them up and down without pixelation.  So, in the Illustrator program my usual process; I start with the Heads and outlines of the characters with a bolder thicker line; after that, facial features, then inner lines and details.

Next week let's do some title designs for Willis Henry

Until then Keep Shining
