A few weeks ago, we did a giveaway where I asked you guys to submit a quote that speaks of who you are. I picked two winners and drew them incorporating their quotes. Without further ado, I would like you to meet two friends of DA, Josh LaFayette and Ellie (aka comfits). Josh's "favorite hobby is breakfast." And Ellie is "like an octopus on roller skates."
Take a look at the process, from the initial pencil drawing to pen to watercolor and collage.
Josh and Ellie, check your mailboxes soon. I think I may now know your faces better than you do. :)
