Manga Illustration (Assignment 2)
This is the second assignment, which is also the final. I chose to create a fanart for Ashe (my favourite champion of League of Legends) and the idea is seeing her as an archangel. The final outcome is really satisfying as I enjoyed very much illustrating it. Struggled for a bit in the middle but picked up the determination to finish it with the best I can do along with lecturer guidance. Many thanks to my lecturer in guiding me all the way with patience and explanations.
The final outcome of the assignment which include added effects using Photoshop while most colouring is done in SAI2.
The earliest concept. My habit of creating masculine female characters struck me hard on this.
Adjustments from lecturer. Still in early concept stage as you can see her bow is really different.
This stage of concept had set and accepted by lecturer to develop into a complete line work piece.
Final line work. As you can see the wings and some part of the designs are missing. I was told by lecturer to use paint over technique as it would be best.
Base colour stage. The wings, pattern and runes are paint overs.
Shading progress, from basic to refining.
Lighting progress, from basic to refining.
Details enhancements, along with complete paint over of the wings.
Paint over the black line work with colours before moving to Photoshop for final touch ups.
