Firaxe V

Coming into to the home stretch - I'm headed to Seattle for PAX on Friday morning, and this is due Sunday at midnight, so I think I'll be submitting my entry tomorrow evening. It's been a fun process, and there'll probably be *one* more update, but we're nearing the end. This started out as a pencil sketch, then was inked with rapidograph, then painted with acrylic inks. From there I scanned it and adjusted it pretty significantly in Photoshop.

Next steps on Fireaxe

Here's after some more painting...

Took my painting into photoshop, gave it a bit more room around the edges and played with some digital painting on top of the ink work. It may be subtle, but I think it's better...
