The colour really draws my in, cos it's a dark vintage look, really cool!
You did this with felt tips? Awesome!!
I'm sure she loved it too
And yes, outline was felt-tip (scanned in), then the colour was in macromedia fireworks.
Colours were quite "normal" to begin with, then yellow/brown textures and semi-transparent rectangles of colour were added over the colour layer and the outlines, giving it that look.
Pretty easy way to make cool colours - colour normally (perhaps a little more pastel than usual), but keep blues to a very light tint (no bright colours).
Then just add semi-transparent yellow/golden brown rectangles over the top and fiddle until you get the desired colour.
And yes, she was quite surprised when she got an A3 poster of it to cheer her up.
my take on it:
it's a fresh spin on the "waiting out the storm for rainbows" concept. glad we aren't beating dead horses, here.
and can i also say
DAWWW. YOUR CLOUDS ARE SO CUTE.
I'm thinking of making a vector stock pack of my clouds because I keep getting comments on them. But then I think they might become a little less special in my personal use. Thoughts...?
I love this <3
Something about eye-burning amounts of colour just does it for me!
