Submission Passion Fruit


I found that colouring in shades of grey works better for me when I'm highlight and create more depth to characters. A rough approximation of the lighting on the characters also helps add depth to them. Digitally I don't think I'm competent enough to do full colour digitally. However I Have ways around that within other sides of my practice such as spot colour illustrations or traditional colour that mimics the fluidity of my line work. 

These are the final character sheets and one enviroment board which I sent to Passion Fruit. the submission also came with an extensive description of the plot, character designs and themes of the story. 

Block colour doesn't really work for me due to the fact that my line work does not mimic that solid clean form. I think thats why I have to start colouring the same way I line to get more effective pieces.

I Know my time management would have been improved if I had set clearer goals of what I wanted to achieve within a certain time frame.  If I knew that I was going to do 2 character sheets 3 enviroment ones and maybe a mock up page. I feel I would have been more successful in both the production of work and getting into Passion fruit. 

These type of competitions are something that I would definitely do again if given the opportunity. I'm going to look at more of these competitions after the course to help develop the comics side of my practice.
