Fan art of Luke Skywalker

in #art7 years ago

So here's a step-by-step walk-through of how I created "Luke on Tatooine".

Step 1: Using a red pencil and ruler in my sketchbook, I use an informal composition technique to layout the image. Then, using the guide lines as areas to fill in with my subject matter; I create a loose sketch of Luke, R2D2, and some of the familiar settings of Tatooine.

Step 2: I scan and print the redline sketch onto a sheet of heavy drawing paper. Using markers, pen, and ink ; I create a black and white drawing.

Step 3: The image is then scanned into my computer, where I open it in Photoshop and drop the color information to grey and clean up any guidelines that remain ...

... then I add color, and the piece is finished.

Hi @joshuadavis! Thanks for drawing me! I'm honored to be the subject of your art. Maybe you could do one of me and my dad @lordvader playing catch? I'm hoping the heartwarming picture will spark something in him.

@joshuadavis That is a very cool technique with the red pencil. I don't do very much digital work but if I ever do, I will have to remember that. Great work, by the way.

Thanks for the compliment! There will be more, so make sure to follow! Yes, it's a very easy, fun technique. :)

Your art is amazing! Thanks for posting this!

Thank you so much! :)
