This was a poster commissioned by a couple I'm friends with for their home. They wanted a poster-sized (18"X24") portrait of their dog Rooster. Their only request was that it be themed "Game of Bones". I ran with it from there. Such a fun project!

 

I drew everything out in pencil first. Then I inked it with Black Micron markers, scanned it into my computer, and colored it in Photoshop CS2

 

Enjoy!

Here's a photo of myself with Rooster, the ruling star of the piece...

The very beginning...

The inked outline...

Now fully inked! Ready to be scanned and colored...

Numerous hours of coloring later (Yes, I'm a little slow and still learning that...), it's ready for print and presentation!  (And celebratory beers of course!)
