Character Designs: Maisie

More or less the same design as Maisie from the comic with a few exceptions; I increased the size of her iris in her eyes and simplified her eye-lashes. 

First I block in the simple geometry of her body in blue, and then I clean up the line with black.   








Then I scan the drawings and import them into Photoshop. 

From there I make the image black and white by going to Image / Adjustments / Black & White. 

Next I go to the levels and pull out all the gray.

A little digital ink and paint later....


...and we have a near finished modelsheet.

The curse is coming...

Please pardon us for the delay of updates, as we have been working diligently on them. Lots of stuff on the way: walk-cycles, backgrounds, conceptual designs, etc.

In other Crimson Cloak news, we will be launching a kickstarter campaign this June. Our aim is to raise enough money to produce an animated mini-series as well as a supplemental comic series.

Here are some examples of the gifts you can receive by donating to our kickstarter:
