The first rough with a striking contrast between a warrior-like man and a girl in a room. There is a manga book at the girl's hand and knee, and you can understand the concept of 'I entered the fantasy world after reading the manga'.
The first revision makes it easier to understand the concept of “jumping into the fantasy world”. First of all, when you ask about the concept, you can imagine “Dragon-like wings and back”. In order to make use of the composition with momentum, instructions are given so that Perth can be drawn consciously.
Also, the fact that the distance between the two people is shortened to emphasize the positional relationship where the man is hugging the girl, and the boundary between people and people, things and things is difficult to understand as a whole is `` I understand It is an important point to make it easier. In order to make the outline easier to understand, it is better to adjust the hue of neighboring objects, or devise the position where the light hits and indicate the difference in brightness.
Rough part 2 (left image) that became a pull picture reflecting the correction, and trimmed to a shape close to rough part 1 (right image).
Left is before correction, right is after correction. In addition to the closer distance between the two characters, the dragon's head is in the background and the concept is easier to understand.
Adopted there in the fact that those arguments do not trimming is a good overall impression. In addition, it has been adjusted because there is a sense of incongruity in how to open the comic book that comes to the center of the screen, and minor corrections have been made to the part where the character's impression changes depending on how the human body is drawn, such as the right hand of a man and the left foot of a girl.
The final rough. Because there is still a sense of incompatibility in how to hold a book, it is important to check what happens when you actually hold it, and to be careful when coloring because it may be difficult to understand men's scarves etc. depending on how they are colored While proceeding to the previous process.
Line drawing process. At this stage, you can clearly understand what is drawn and where is the boundary between things, so it is necessary to color them so as not to impair their clarity.
Coloring process # 1.
Drawing of coloring process part 2. Since the light source is emitted from the right hand of the man, you can see that the back of the character is in shadow.
Completed illustration 1 with the overall color adjusted. The head of the girl and the man's left shoulder are close to each other in lightness and saturation, but it is difficult to understand, but because of the illustration that the light is coming from the front of the two people, `` Clarify the boundary by applying light '' The expression method cannot be used. Therefore, we decided to adjust the girl's hair color to lighter.
Final completed illustration.
Left before completing illustrations fix, right complete illustrations revised.
