Hi All,
Here's my latest vector-based picture, which uses the inset path technique for the shadows, but the rest is just very detailed paths done in a total of seven colours - 2 greys, 3 browns/beiges, Blue and black.
There was A LOT of path editing to get what I wanted - the sky was a sea of speckles, as was the water and a lot of the paths generated overlapped and had to be worked on so as not to end up with a muddy mess.
On the physical side, I was experimenting with some new paper, and I don't like it - it's too absorbent and I prefer a whiter paper so I won't use it again, it's back to Bristol Board for me. However the quick pen-change mod worked a charm and made the swapping of colours a doddle.
I'm pretty chuffed at the result 🙂 What do you think? Please let me know, even if you think it's crap!
Ta
Steve
