I don’t know if this interests anyone or not, but I made another mushroom, and I’m making it available to anyone who wants to color it!
Color me! It’ll be fun… or weird… I don’t know…
I will do my own colors in Concepts for this one, but I’d love to see what other people make of my strange little doodle. I will probably draw more skulls, for folks like me who refuse to let the Halloween season end, and I will eventually make the mermaid I’m working on available as a coloring image as well.
Speaking of which, I got more work done on the mermaid today as well. The inking is almost done and I’ve started playing with the colors.
A creepy, colorful mermaid!
Adding colors in InkPad is a bit like making a paper-cut image. I trace the shapes of the main colors using the pen toll, then go back with the brush tool to trace less precise shapes for shading and highlights. All the colors are flat, so it looks like layers of cut paper laid over each other to make an image. At least that’s how it feels to me.
Again, let me know if you like the mushroom coloring image, and I will work on making more to share with folks. There are so many coloring books out there on so many topics, but I don’t think there are any books that focus on creepy or gothic or scary subjects, so I think maybe we could fix that, right?
