COLOURED CHARACTERS
i decided that colour should be dull and pasty...dont
like the look of solid digital colour...especially when
the image isnt completely digitally traced...i.e in illustrator etc
this being so ive reinforced the idea of the old parchment look.
after rooting around in my art materials i randomly found
a small piece of rice paper...exactly what the chinese use for
their lush paintings...so using this as a backdrop for the robes, body
etc...it didnt look so strange...well at least i dont think so...!?
As my colour palette is dull and grayish...colouring the tiger orange
didnt seem an option...dont get me wrong i most certainly pondered
the idea for a while...anyway i prefer white tigers...more magical i suppose

BRUSH PAINTED LAYOUT/ASETHETIC CONT
...im loving the look of this ^^^
...everything i was originally aiming for...
unfortunately i didnt paint it...
...however, its exactly the style
im going to aim for from now on. It looks dull and somber...
has the feel of weathered parchment...and it incorperates
strong use of pos/neg space...large shapes -- small positive detail.
here's a new and improved step by step formula for
my proposed layout/aesthetic...its not completely there yet...
but its heading in a direction im happy with
my brush work isnt brilliant...but it is slowly improving as
i get more confident...oh and LING hasnt been coloured yet.
...ill post colour tests tomorrow.
