For today's sketch, I thought you might be interested in how I build a drawing up in Photoshop. I start with reference material: photos, costume reference from comics (if it happens to be a comic character like Storm here), other artists renderings, etc. I then start to roughly scratch out the features, building them slightly more and more detailed in blue. The red layer is for clothing and sometimes hair, this helps me see how they will interact with the figure without just blending back into the rest of the drawing. Finally I either start digitally inking on a new black layer in Photoshop or print it out (all in light blue) and ink it by hand. then I digitally add the shading or color. Finished version tomorrow :)
