Manga Me Facebook Competition Winner!

Well the Facebook competition was a great success. We had 59 people submit photos to the competition. In the end 1 winner was chosen. Stephen Holman.

Anyway as promised I have spent the last 4 days working on his image and I am pleased with the final picture.

And here is the original image.

Here are the WIPs. (works in progress)

First the rough sketch. Just to give me an idea where everything is.

Next, darker lines are added.

Line art is neatened ready for the colouring.

Base colours are added.

More red is added to the skin and then shadeing soft shading is added.

Background is blocked in then slightly blurred to make Stephen pop out more.
