BTS - Prologue Cover from sketch to finished (Patreon)

Another behind-the-scenes look at how the prologue cover came together! Unlike the promo image from the last BTS post, I made this cover illustration in Procreate, so I had a layer limit of 16 layers on my canvas! To circumvent this issue (because my workflow needs a lot more layers), I separated this cover into 3 different components: the background, the subject, and the foreground. Each of these components was worked on in a separate procreate file, and exported as a flat image into a final composite file!

Needless to say, I’ll be switching from Procreate to Clip Studio Paint for comics work now 🤣
