All Tooled Up

by thisnorthernboy

I’m in to my eleventh week of drawing a droid every day. So far my drawings have been either a quick pencil or pen sketch, or a slightly more considered drawing in pen.

So far all my droids have been in black and white. However, I’ve finally got to a point where I think some of my droids would benefit from a splash of colour.

Below is my first attempt at colouring on of my droid illustrations, Droid #73 is my favourite so far, so it’s only right he should be the first.

The pen illustration was scanned and colour added in photoshop. Colouring took about 5 hours, and I didn’t go over the lines once. Honest.

It's all about having the right tools for the job.
