Week 1 – a good start! 3 sketches and 2 converted into Photoshop.

21 hours completed – 979 hours to go.

Experimenting with just a limited number of brush shapes. Majority of both of these pieces were using a ‘Ragged hard round brush’ set to different opacities and switching between a round tip and a more precise tip (just checking the ‘shape dynamics’ box under the brush settings.)

I’ve worked mostly in shades of grey first, adding the colour as an adjustment layer about 2/3rds of the way through.

Here is a video showing a few stages from ‘Afterglow’.
