Homework for April third.

This weeks homework is more or less the same as last week. We are dealing with two figures and a setting. One of the figures must be painted in the traditional method we have been painting in all semester, the other I want you to utilize the new illustration techniques I've covered in class the last two weeks. In other words you are starting with a drawing made outside of photoshop, scanning it in, and integrating it into the painting. Remember from last week, in some homework, people were trying to do an outline drawing, and paint under it as realistically as the other fully painted figure, and this usually did not work, as the two styles compete with each other. So remember to deal with the painting of the line drawing accordingly this week, possibly by simplifying the coloring of the line drawing, or using a more complicated drawing. Feel free to incorporate textures as I showed you, or use channel selections to colorize line work as a way to help you create space. See you next week.
