Step by Step Pencil/Digital Illustrations (Techniques and Processes)































This was my first try at depicting one of earths cities after  Operation SHELL had undergone. I felt like this was the wrong kind of style, so i began working on a different drawing. 




This was my second attempt at illustrating a city of earth (LONDON) after the events of SHELL. I Felt like i was on to something with the style but still not quite what i wanted. I decided to move on to illustrating one of the cities from inside the dome. 






This was the first design of the Haven Foundation Logo. I made 3 more the one marked (4) being the one i liked.

This drawing was my very first try at Leon using his powers. i did not intend to complete this as it was more of a conceptual effort. 



















After having finished this i moved on to the next one, addressing this issues found with this drawing.



I started off with out legs as i wasn't sure if i was going to have environments covering that area. I later added the legs when i had a clearer idea of what i was drawing. 









After Having lernt from the first drawing that the lighting needed to be more realistic, for this drawing i found online several realistic lighting techniques. I am performing one of those with this gradient. this is the Website that i lernt the technique:http://abduzeedo.com/fying-girl-photoshop (WARNING OPEN LINK IN A NEW BROWSER WINDOW)

From the picture marked (1) i tried to add a few things to the picture, but decided against them and instead chose to add in the legs.

From the image marked (2) i used the program Alchemy to draw up some abstract shapes to use as the environments that are being manipulated by Leon's powers. 
















Finished, very pleased! I wanted to include some kind of background but just could not think of anything that would work with out making the image over crowded. 





This was my final effort at illustrating one of earths cities from inside a dome (SHELL). I am very pleased with this as i feel like i was able to capture the style i wanted, now that i wasn't thinking about what was around the dome but instead what is inside.  











This was my final environment design. This time i was digitally rendering my concept for Leon's world, depicting the city Callence, the ARC Spire and the ARC-Ship.  I am very pleased with how this turned out, continuing the style from the previous drawing.
