Fantastic! You are really great at these characters! Could you give a little insight into the process? Do you have rough reference material of peoples faces or do you sketch from scratch?

devey said on Jun. 03 '11

Thanks everyone. Regarding the process, I usually start with pencil sketches to get the basic idea and layout, then I search for reference and tighten the sketch in Photoshop with a Wacom tablet. For this style, I reference illustrations from the 40s and 50s for the pose and lighting, as this type of illustration is too complex for me to create from my imagination. That said, I do change my version quite a bit and reference multiple images in order to make it "mine."
