Reply To: KAY-9 Contest – Discussion and In Progress Thread

Hey everyone, i just submitted my entry and wanted to share some of the process with everyone.

(This is the final version i chose to submit.)

Originally i wanted to illustrate a male Goofy and female Snoopy chasing a Battered Bunny. However, the composition was too boring and predictable for me.

(it was painful to stop this, since i was already two weeks into the challenge at this point)

I scraped the idea and sketched out a more dynamic scene, with no rabbit but law enforcement chasing the culprits (now both in Snoopy masks).

(sloppy sketch, pink is my go-to)

(basic colors, working with curves layer masks for shadows and light)

Overall this was completely out of my comfort zone, and even though many things are wrong with the illustration, I am proud of the challenge. Everything was made in Photoshop.
