#the line art is the sketch layer but cleaned up

hey thanks for all the new followers from this piece! I thought it'd be neat to share a bit of my process on this one.
A lot of my work is for the music industry, and this piece was originally for a local festival that unfortunately got cancelled. The venue for the festival had a vintage furniture shop inside of it, and that kinda inspired me to look into older music players. I've always thought reel to reels looked really cool, and the wood grain on a lot of the retro ones made me want to include some woodpeckers, and the rest just kinda came together.

This is the original thumbnail and then a cleaned up digital sketch. Usually I sketch everything traditionally but I wanted to try out the perspective tool in Clip Studio for the first time. From here, I printed out the line art of my digital sketch onto some transparency film so I could use carbon paper to transfer over the sketch onto Clayboard to ink the piece.
Tumblr media
If you're not familiar with clay board it's basically a thick illustration board that allows you to gently scrape off layers of clay to revel white underneath your ink work. I don't use it for every project but I really love the line quality you get with it.
From there, I'll scan back in the finished ink drawing to color it inside Photoshop. The colored digital file is what the original post is. While I'm coloring the piece, I'm using individual layers for each color and trapping them as I go to make the final screen print come together easier.
Tumblr media
This is the actual final piece, a 4 color screen print on off white card stock. At some point, I want to dedicate a post to how each layer interacts with each other, in this piece the red is printed on top of the brown to create a dark red in the leaves. This print sold out last holiday season and I'm hoping to have it restocked sometime this spring.
Anyways, thanks again for checking out my work. I hope this is formatted ok, I haven't written a tumblr post in like a decade. Ok bye

I've had this pose ref saved for a while and the Superman set photos just gave off the same energy 👉🏻👈🏻
The reference is this photo of Katharine Hepburn as Antiope and Colin Keith-Johnston as Theseus in the 1932 play 'The Warrior's Husband' (and I'd love for people to turn into a draw your otp meme pls pls pls this pose is so good)

And also, of course, the Superman (2025) set photos

#superfamilyweek#superman#dcu#clois#lois lane#clark kent#i was actually gonna post this a few days ago but then i found out about the superfamily week#it wasn't made for it but i hope you can accept this humble offering even if it doesn't really fit the prompts#art#digital#fanart#live-action#dc#regular#final#colour#this actually from june when the set photos came out and i just got completely obsessed and went into a clois haze#it all looks so good though!! the whole thing!!!! i'm vibrating with excitement just thinking about it!!!!!!!#if this film isn't good i'm gonna be sooo disappointed you guys have no idea how much i'm looking forward to it#but anyway. ART RAMBLES: as i mentioned on the tags of my last drawing this piece gave me SUCH a headache#i think it's probably cos it was just supposed to be a quick sketch so i used a more stable pencil brush#but then i really liked it so i decided to properly colour it instead of just doing the watercolour thing i usually do for sketches#but with finished pieces i like the lineart to be kinda messy and the sketch to even show through bit#and since i used the more stable brush for the sketch it ended up looking WAY too clean. not like my stuff at all.#so i just started throwing stuff at the wall to see what could make it more interesting. full background! actual lineart! texture layers!#and this here is what i was the happiest with. i don't... love it though. it should be looking way more interesting given the pose#and then i also did the purge girl halfway through this and it looked SO good right out of the bat (pun intended)#so i went a bit into a spiral. did some realistic stuff i'll post soon. and now am trying out a thick black lineart style.#(i'll definitely still use the coloured lines for the sketchy watercolour stuff though. it just looks way too cute)

☺️ and 👀?
thank u!! | end of year art meme
😊 a piece i’m really proud of and why
i'm so so so so happy with this fanart for the Cautious Traveller's Guide to the Wastelands. of course I popped off while making fanart for a relatively unknown piece of media 😭 but it doesn't matter because i'm SO proud of it and it gave me a taste for lush/cluttered illustrations which i really hope to make more of in the future!
👀 a piece where i tried something new
it was kind of a product of necessity (I'd missed the zine deadline and was rushing to get it done) but I didn't do a refined lineart pass for this ACOC art. instead i just kind of cleaned up my sketch layers and rendered it as best i could. lineart is my least favourite part of the process and (fortunately/unfortunately) this proved that i could get away with messier lines and still have a piece look "complete" by my own standards. since then i've used a cleaned up sketch layer as my lineart for a few more pieces and it's SO much more enjoyable 😭

Reminder to always check whether you accidentally deleted a layer or folder before closing you art file! Or else you may open it the next day to find you've lost hours of work 🙃
