Process - April Rewards (Patreon)

Been a very hectic month but felt like doing a slightly bigger process update with some shots of the work towards this months rewards.  Been working on Velma, Daphne, Mina and Ivy and thought I would throw everything into a single post rather than multiple as we are literally at the end of April. Last update for the rewards I shared the line-art work for the four drawings:

I have since updated these as I had some mixed feeling towards them overall. Some bits I liked and some bits I didn't. (Velma in particular was not working). Updated versions:

Expanded on the lines and made other major changes here. At this stage was a bit happier with the lines and moved on to shading. One way I like to use shading with good old paper and pencil.

This method I don't do all the time but has some nice benefits like for consistency and lighting. In the examples above you can also see where I removed and added lines in red (always tinkering). I plan to experiment next month with the texture of pencil shading on top of illustrations as it gives an interesting effect.

First level of colouring:

Will save the reveal of final images for the rewards post. Hope you guys like the post and if you want more process stuff just let me know with drop a like with any suggestions as always.
