Yu Baba (Spirited Away) - fast eddy


This was a hard one as the Ghibli films are so well done it's very hard to improve on them. I tried doing Yu Baba. Instead of simplifying i tried to make her look meaner and uglier. This was supposed to be a look of utter disdain but ended up somewhere else. It's a real task to achieve the right look sometimes.

  3. Have been using fine liner on paper and then scanning in and doing colour and cleaning up in photoshop. Definitely looking at getting a wacom tablet tho as the colouring is painstaking with the mouse. Appreciate the comments! Cheers!
