Description COMMENT:
One of my favourite characters, Assam, from "Koucha Ouji". I take inspiration from a B&W illustration in the 4th vol. and i added colors, and lot of details; The background is taken f the limited edition of Nespresso, the design on the cup. For the dress, i searched on Google indian flowers and icons (there was not all the deatils in the original draw, only the chains).

TOOLS:
As usual, markers, watercolor, ink, and colored pencils

LINX:
a website on "Koucha Ouji" here: [link]
And the wonderfull gallery of Nanpei Yamada here:[link]

Gorgeous! Looks like Assam by way of Basara. The detail on the collar, and the background is really fantastic.

frosk [2006-09-23 15:06:39 +0000 UTC]

some skillful colouring here. I like how you manage to make all the colours of the patterned collar change colour at the back of hte neck. If that makes sense.

gribouil In reply to frosk [2006-09-24 16:40:46 +0000 UTC]

Yes, there a sense, i tried to reproduce a satin effect, and so i add shadow in the neck and white for the light ^^

frosk In reply to gribouil [2006-09-25 07:36:43 +0000 UTC]

gah. what i meant was that you managed to add the same shadowtone to all the colours at the back so that they still match the lighter colours.

Dammit. i am unable to say what i mean in english right now. Hope you understand anyhow.

gribouil In reply to frosk [2006-09-27 11:33:53 +0000 UTC]

Sory, i understand now
In fact, for the back, i put the lighter color for the shadow; i explain: in the patern, i put yellow, blue, red, green. After having colored all the patern, when the marker was dry, i put a second time the yellow tone on all the colors at the back , to do the shadow.
Hope it was clear or i'll explain again, no prob!
