Not a whole lot to write this time. Thought I'd post a step by step of MGS' own Grey Fox/Ninja
This like other things I've posted thus far was done on my gen one iPad using sketchbook pro and my wacom stylus. Total time start to finish: 4 hours.
first I start with the pencils. For reference I used a photo of the action figure that was pictured at the Tokyo Game Show by Destructoid.com
on the next layer I started the basic inking.
I wasn't liking the prospect of being meticulously cross hatching like crazy for 12 hours. So I decided the experiment with some of the other odd brushes to texture and shade in parts. Tis done separately on another layer in case it went horribly wrong.
and here's the finished shaded up version.
now I fire up a new layer and begin to color the blue sections of his suit. When I color I get a tad sloppy so I do many layers as to not screw everything up. Thankfully this was easy and not requiring too much.
and now the orange parts. The face is grey tones on yet another layer.
Now the finishing touches. Background quickly dashed together. Merging color layers. Then finally a new layer where I added the red glow and the eye light thingy and it's little electric arcs. And finally....the end result.
