Yeah- That's Franziska The Studio Kawaii girls made the title page of their comic of her in a dress similar to this. Their was more ornate, but you can't do ornate with copics so I settled on this design XD I knew as soon as I saw it that she needed to be the focus on the cover I also happen to be a fan of Fran x Lang ^^ <3
(With alot of things, yes. I do alot of medieval fantasy art- not so much currently, but usually I do. New Zealand is more appropriate for that. Or UK )
It.... depends. With all my copic pictures, I use copic multiliners or some sort of ink pen to give edges. Bristol board doesn't bleed, but in sayign this, you still can't get sharp edges with it. The tiles on the bottom of the image were done free hand. As you can see, it's a pretty broad line. That is the copics being FINE. To get the light edges in this picture I used a sharp pencil.
In this picture I happened to draw everything at the wrong proportion completely and utterly. For this, I slapped it into photoshop, twieeked the lineart till it was correct, and reprinted it on bristol again. I had to redo the linearts from scratch, but correcting it was well worth it http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v734/arkillian/ToTcover.jpg It looked like this before I tweeked it. The different levels gave the picture depth it didn't have before it.
In conclusion, I use mixed media when it's needed, so yes. If I need the look another medium gives, I wont hesitate to use it. Why not? IT's not cheating. There's not cheating in illustration. Just an end product Resizing it in photoshop is no different from me redrawing it from scratch again except I saved myself TRUCK loads of time and frustration by just using a faster medium to do the job. Never be affraid to mix mediums to get a better result. Just don't cut corners on quality cause of it. Mixed media should improve art not cheapen it.
I have to mix media it any way cause to reproduce a traditional picture, I have to scan it anyways
I so admire the results you get. I've only tried colored pencils once, and never markers -- so permanent! But I'm finding working digitally there's no end to the fixing I can do...
