I have been leaning towards a lighter style recently. I used to always be into evil looking gobs and nasty monsters but drawing cartoon-like characters is as much fun and allows you to develop your skill. And with “bouncy castles” like these here – even more fun;) (that did sound wrong).

I recently do all my sketches while getting to work, taking time to clean up and tidy the lines(do not clean up too much though! -why removing all the texture if you’ll wanna apply it again in photoshop later on anyway?) until I am fairly satisfied and decide it is ready to be scanned and put through digital colouring.

I like where this one was going but might have stopped the process a little too early. Knowing when to finish – a decision as difficult for the artist as choice of light and colour…
