This is what happens when there’s an Amalgam Challenge and you have to choose two characters to create that new Amalgam Character. 
Yep. 
It’s still a work in progress….

Current work in progress, now that I’ve got Paint Tool SAI back up and running. :D SUPERGIRL!
I lost the original application (stupidly deleted it, go me) and forgot that I also put it on a laptop. So, file share, I did. :D

A to Z Character Challenge :: Amethyst

Here’s the first character for my current (and massive) character list that I’ll be doodling up simple pieces for. This is Amethyst of the DC Nation short Amethyst: Princess of Gemworld.

Here’s Batman, all done up in color! :D

In the background, you’ve got the rough sketch, the cleaner sketch and the lines. You can almost call this a “process piece”.

And, since I made mention of it last time, here’s what I’ve got my shadows and highlights set to and what color I use.

From Sketch to Colors :: Part I

This is normally how I do things, in Paint Tool SAI, from beginning rough sketch to final inks and flats.

I start with a rough sketch, in a combination of blue and red colors. I like to keep things simple but most of the time, my sketches get a bit messy. I like messy. :P

Then, I follow up that sketch with another, this time, adding more details and I use a more refined, cleaner brush.

After that comes the line art which is done with the same tool I use to create that second sketch. The line art layer is set to Binary Color, 50% opacity and I ink over my sketch the same way as if I were to use the pen tool. Once finished, I change the layer back to Normal, 100$ opacity. Nice, clean line art!

The flats follow….

Soon, there will be a part two; a look at how I do the lighting (shadows, highlights, etc).
