Wedding card design (mainly illustrations) and production for a friend, Elijah who’s based in UK, and the lovely Rowena. The scene is set against a European backdrop, with a couple running for the train that represents the beginning of an endless, lifelong journey together.
Digital illustration on Photoshop with a tablet. The 160 wedding invitations took about two months (Mar-Apr) to plan, illustrate and produce.
The folded card is 100mm x 210mm, printed on both sides of white glittery paper. Envelope is in metallic grey of the same material, additionally handcrafted with a tag for writing names secured by two metal tacks, as well as a sticker seal for each set of card.
( More LOVE under the cut! )
Digital illustrations, 6 hours on Photoshop.
Based on a scene of a fairytale-remixed-into-fanfiction by *someone* currently in the works. ^^
Coloured in greyscale as a practice for shadow and lighting (although it felt more like trial and error), and failing pretty badly as you can see. I was attempting to steer away from total realism when using photo references, but it’s not easy because I don’t draw manga.. or rather I can’t. More details on this project later, maybe.
#1 was supposed to be set in the forest during the night; the tilt of the moonlight spilling on the lone horse-rider as he seems to have discovered something.
#2 Hello.. stranger.
Since I haven’t posted any illustration artwork in a while, I’ll offer you a visual treat of Ohchan <3 referenced from Wink Up May 2010 photoshoot.
Remember the book cover of Rental Children? This was painted with that style in mind. Oh also, I’m surprised I sped up in my digital painting, which would normally span for days and weeks, and end up under piles of mushrooms in the folder. In case you’re wondering, this took me 5 hours on Photoshop with a tablet. (cause I couldn’t sleep the whole night after overeating for supper at the airport with the girls >_< )
Note: Respect my art, do not make changes or use it for other purposes. Comments appreciated!
( ほら、ばれちゃったよ! )
A couple of selected sketches out of the whole lot that I did while cracking up at the video. Sketched in black ink on paper, coloured in Photoshop – I had to force myself to stay away from the Smooth Round brushes :< Colour scheme was referenced from arnistotle @ DA. Comments are greatly appreciated! <3
