Step 3: Method of coloring illustrations, Executing illustrations

After sketches on paper, the process continued with trying different methods of digitally coloring the illustrations. One, was to use live paint on illustrator, two, was to manually do lineart in photoshop and paint using masks and the wand tool, three was manually creating lineart in illustrator and paint using fills.

The most time efficient and suitable look was a combination between live paint and manual lineart in illustrator, which was adopted into the book. The fullsize sketching of the illustrations were started.

Illustrations based off of storyboard sketches were executed. Pencil sketches were first completed.





The cover and several mockups were done first to set a tone that was important for consistency while doing the rest of the layouts and illustrations.
