Two more index card done!
I drew the fungi then coloured them with the Chameleon Color Tones and Color Tops pens. Cogs have appeared in the background once again – gotta have a lil bit of steampunkishness!
I’ve used 3D Crystal Lacquer on the fungi caps and on the stars in the background.
I’m liking the slightly bigger format of the index cards compared to ATCs.
I spent some time yesterday and this morning adding some details to drawing on each of the index cards.
I added stippling and lines to add shading on the focal points, both in black and white.
I also added some ground for them so they weren’t floating in air; the grasses or plants in the background I wanted as black silhouettes just so interest/texture/pattern was added.
Finally, I added either white dots or black ‘popping bubbles’ to the ‘sky’ for more visual interest.
I’m now much happier with them and feel that they are complete.
