*Illustration Tutorial

I made this in 2010 for a project that didn't take off, but I wanted to make it a PDF and share it with you guys.

Digital Illustration Tutorial

It's a little old and the image quality isn't top notch, but there's lots of information there about how I approach brainstorming, composition, color, and storytelling. Some of you might be interested. :)

I think you have a great idea. You should just make a short story or short film online. You don’t need big Hollywood investors if you truly are passionate about this idea.

Very interesting! How do you make sketches? Do you use a tablet or draw on paper and scan it into photoshop?

Hey Julie,

Thank you so much for sharing your work with me and the rest of the folks that stop by. I am a Northern California native so it is very thrilling for me to view such great work coming out of our part of the state.

Keep up the great work.

Peace,
Skrippcha
