KNUCKLEJELLY COVER - PHOTOSHOP SKETCH


Here I've scanned the original sketch into Photoshop and cleaned up some of the sketchier elements. I gave the house some better perspective and cleaned up the character's face and hair and the wrinkles in his suit... I also gave him a pipe because I forgot to draw one the first time.

I don't like straight sketching in photoshop, (it takes me too long and I like to be able to turn the paper, something I can't do with my current Wacom tablet) but I do like working like this. It allows me to be very loose and messy in my initial sketch, which causes me less worry so I can just have fun and get the drawing started, knowing I can refine it in later without wearing out my thin little piece of paper. It also saves me time, which is something I REALLY need.
