Recently did an illustration of the band
Ravens and Chimes for
Amelia's Magazine. Here's the process:
 |
| Draw the band from a promo photo on their website |
 |
| Draw some ravens in flight, using Google Images as a source. |
 |
| In Photoshop, create a background by rotating and pasting the ravens image, and add the band drawing in the foreground. |
 |
| Print out the combined image and paint the background. Printer ink mixes with the watercolour and makes unexpected hues and shadows. |
 |
| Crop the image, bump contrasts and levels: Final image. |
