   How I do my Art
A lot of people have asked how I create/color my artwork. basically, everything is hand drawn in pencil first. Next, I go over the messy pencil lines with a fine-point marker, and erase the pencil. Afterward, I scan the image into Photoshop. Using the eyedropper tool, I get the actual color from screen captures and use paintbucket to fill the areas, like coloring a colorbook. Next, I use the burn/dodge tool for shadows and highlights. As a final touch, I add a blur to soften lines and give everything more of a screen capture feel.
