Harry & Ginny



A rare moment of doing something for fun! I did this a couple weeks ago - a little birthday gift for a Harry Potter fan. I think this was one of the first times I did the linework right in Photoshop. I usually scan a pencil drawing, but I wanted to try a little experiment. Took a bit longer than if I'd done it with pen and paper, but it was a nice way to get clean, slick lines. I think I'll do all the linework this way on my next book.

So this is all Photoshop?

I did scan in some really rough sketches. But from that point on, the rest was done in photoshop - finishing up the sketch and then using that as reference on a different layer to sort of trace over.

The background was a result of not wanting to bother with it.. heh.. so I did some mountainy/forest looking scribbles, and put lots of noise and blur filters on it!
