lady-owl:‹‹ Previous | Current - You Are Here | Next.. »First PanelPanels 10 and 11 from my in progress comic based on Halo: Contact Harvest, a novel written by Joseph Staten.The full Page One is viewable here These two panels were both really cool and fun to work on as I attempted to create an “animation cel” like feel about it, but the most difficult. I did both of these in the same PSD file; both with their own separate line art and base colors/shades/highlights/etc for Fortitude (red robes) and the Cleric. It made it difficult with so many layers, as I am still working with the ancient Photoshop 5.0 (from 1998) which actually has a layer limit and no ability to group layers into folders for organizational purposes like newer versions. It was literally like having two separate illustrations combined into one… which you can imagine began to bog down PS (the memory hog that it is). To make matters worse, older versions have memory cap limits. Mine usually begins to freeze up at 1.8 million K with no ability to increase that limit. Yes, I wish I had the money to upgrade. OTL _____________________________________ Story excerpt - “Just as the noise of the pestle started to grate on the tympanic slits in the back of Fortitude’s skull, the cleric emptied his mortar onto a square of white cloth spread on the counter. ‘Let it steep as long as you like. The longer the better, of course.’ The cleric tied the prescription into a sachet and pushed it gently across the counter. ‘Blessings on your day, Minister,” he said with a sympathetic smile. “I shall step forward.” Fortitude grimaced. Though today a bit more delicately than usual.“ ~ Reblogging some of my older Halo fan arts in celebration of Halo Infinite ‘s launch - Dec. 8th, 2021. -- source link
