touch up on my heaven

Just finished doing some touch ups. The bear's lines are a bit darker, the Beatles faces are a little more distinctly Beatles and my legs are a little longer, can you tell?

We're gonna do it with this one too..

Again, the beginning is a sketch, me crowd surfing on bears at a Beatles concert :

the sketch

 next i filled in some basic colors, just to get an feeling going. i also outlined some characters

 i ended up using the sketchy outlines for the bears, i think it balances well with the "photoshopped" look. Also Beatles got some hair and skin color.

 Lastly i changed the levels so the bear outline shows up better, and i colored in some other elements. i ended up leaving the stage as is from the sketch, because a friend of mine really thought it worked well. we'll have to see what my teacher thinks tomorrow.

Final

A Process
