How I Roll

Here is my latest deviation at Deviantart (http://raoulster.deviantart.com) and the process from start to finish.  I start with a pencil on paper drawing.  I used to do pencil drawings with the thought of making them finished pieces, but now I draw them knowing that I will move to Photoshop.  Next, I clean up the lines on PS, then I paint in the shadow and the shading.  Figuring out where the shadows fall is a trick, and shading is tedious, but they both serve to bring out the three dimensionality of the pic.  Finally, I color the pic and highlight it, and viola!  A perverted work of "art".

This picture is a homage to the Dangerous Leigh stories of Doctor Krahe.  Please visit him at http://doctorkrahe.deviantart.com
