Monday Print BTS
🕑 Added 2024-10-01 07:48:44 +0000 UTCOh, hello!
I thought you might enjoy a behind the scenes look into what went into making the finished artwork.
The process typically looks like:
1. I draft a sketch
2. Maki checks and revises
3. I send Maki a colours draft
4. Maki checks and revises
5. I apply changes, go back in and polish off all the details
6. It's goes to print and then Maki mails them out
Btw, they should be arriving to you this week!
So I started with this sketch:
The background is a 3D corridor I made for the film with the angle readjusted. Anyway, I showed this to Maki and she made a revision:
I took her advice to push the expressions, bring the alien closer to the characters, and found a comfortable middle ground between my initial sketch and Maki's. And then it was colouring time! Which was tricky because I used the following Alien screenshots as colour reference, and I've never really seen an anime skin colour palette in this range:
It's nowhere near as orange as the movie shots but I think the print turned out alright in the end! I hope you like it and can even hand it to a random child instead of candy now that Halloween is around the corner.
