Hi Hive! Got a new illustration for ya. This is some kind of...alien ant?
This was this years Halloween Card.
I think I'll keep the process for this one a little shorter than last time...but here's some snapshots of the process along the way:
Here were the initial rough sketches for the piece. None of which ended up being used as reference lol.
I ended up whipping out the ol' sketchbook and started to throw down some bug people. I think the first or second sketch is what I ended up using as the inspo.
From there it was a pretty straight forward process of color blocks and shading.
Almost took the piece in a very different direction stylistically, as you can see from this linework pass.
Anyways, thanks for taking a peek!
