Happy Easter Everyone.. though I am a few hours late.
Here we have Petra Cottontail making an Easter Delivery, hiding an egg for some cleaver young boy or girl to find.
This is Part 7 of my Easter How to Draw tutorial.
Steps 1 & 2 | Step 3 | Step 4 | Step 5 | Step 6 | Step 7
Part 7:
Final. I have coloured everything, and then gone over some of the lines again, thickening them up, hiding a few smudges and bleeding effects from the markers. A few extra touch ups are added here and there, some minor shadowing to go with some minor highlighting.
Once scanned in, i did a very minor touch up on her left cheek, and I used the wand tool the blank out the boarder space, making it crisp and void, to help the picture and Petra stand out.

Wow! really nice tutorial, love seeing your process. I like the bit where you mentioned using an Exacto blade to get rid of some of the ink, I'll have to keep that one in mind, I sometimes would use white gel pen and always wondered if there was a more effective way. The eraser bit is also nice too; I may have crumpled a piece or two from getting a little carried away!
Something that I sometimes do for my traditional art is if I'm having a hard time picking out colors, I'll scan the drawing and print out multiple smaller draft versions on a single page to test out different palettes before I fully commit to one.

I should do an Xacto tutorial sometime...
Basically, you VERY Carefully scrape along the line.. this will sort of drag away the top layer of paper with the ink on it. I then go over it after with an eraser to help rub out any excess traces of ink as well as sooth out the roughed up paper. Thankfully this was a very tine line along the egg, so I did not have to wrry about having to hide it too much under colouring.
