This is my only night-time piece in the ABC book, but this is followed by a twilight scene with Jason and Kelly. I started making some funky Photoshop brushes for filling in the dogs and objects. I start in Illustrator, creating a clean pattern - import it into photoshop as an EPS and define the brush. I created a fairly complicated grid of hollow squares that I then selected 3 regions of, creating 3 unique brushes. Look closely at Gina's patterning to see the results.


Photoshop with both Wacom Intus3 and Cintiq... I'm working my way back through the book... so I'm cleaning up a lot of PRE-Cintiq issues.
