Man.. this took forever to finish. If only you could see the detail. It took a couple hours a day for 5 days to finally finish this. I worked on the jewelry for soooo long and then decided to change it! Argh, I’m too much of a perfectionist.
I didn’t even attempt a background. I was fed up with it, hah! I’ll probably put one in later though.
This wasn’t intended to look like a bride, but it sort of turned out like that. A while ago I had a showing of illustrations of south asian brides from all over Pakistan and India (and the types of clothing and jewelry that accompanied them. Man, it was EXHAUSTING. So this kind of spun off from that.
Oh wow! This is just awesome... Please yeah share the details of what used..paint, pencil, photoshop, etc...
The jewelry is so cute...did you use phtoshop to give that print kind of effect?
I used photoshop. I'm actually trying to size down portions of the drawing right now (but it's incredibly large so photoshop is taking it's sweet ol' time), so I can show details from it (you can't see how much in the one picture).
First I sketched the idea in pencil, then I photographed it, and inked and colored in photoshop. I probably used about 40 layers to get the desired effect, hah!
