More digi-bots

I have gotten really in to digi-tizing my bots, taking them from pencil sketches to inked versions to re-inking them in illustrator. They take about 20-30 minutes each digi-tizing so probably an hour for each bot.

So I decided to do my favourite group sketch again but digitally.



I started with this guy.

 Here is a compilation shot of all my favourite bots so far. All the robots are complete and built up in layers so I can re-use the graphics again for other things. I have shuffled them around a bit but they are all there.
I dodn't even both inking these, I just scanned the pencil versions and inked them digitally in illustrator.

 That is it from me for now, I think I'll try some anime characters, but which ones?

So this is how it is going to go


Just the one image today, but one I am very pleased with it. On the left is the original pencil to pen inked sketch on the right is the Illustrator version. I am really pleased with how it has come out, it took about an hour to do but it was my first time tracing a sketch in illustrator so I spent most of the time learning. So I am happy I have the bots at a visual standard, so that I can now concentrate on the story. It is very amusing, I write my music on a guitar and then arrange it on a computer, I do the same with my illustrations.
