New Book
I scanned in a pencil drawing and then coloured it up in Photoshop. The book is due out next year, in Spring I hope.

We love comments and really appreciate the time it takes to leave one.
Interesting and pithy reactions to a post are brilliant but we also LOVE it when people just say they've read and enjoyed.
We've made it easy to comment by losing the 'are you human?' test, which means we get a lot of spam. Fortunately, Blogger recognises these, so most, if not all, anonymous comments are deleted without reading.

Poor Dog! I hope he is cleared of all blame.
ReplyDeleteI really like the textures you have added to the background.
agreed, great dog characterisation, and some lovely subtle colours, I'd never have guessed it was entirely coloured in Photoshop.
ReplyDeleteVery striking cover Mike.
ReplyDeleteDid you keep the pencil drawing on a layer above the colour (in multiply mode?) or did you re-do the linework in Photoshop too?
And did you add the type?
Hi Paul,
ReplyDeleteI scanned a pencil drawing into Photoshop, and the line layer sat on top on the other layers, but not in multiply mode. I used that mode for adding texture to the background. Yes, I chose this type (Boop Boop) which I think has a nice modern goofy sort of quality. The designer wanted to go a different way, but we eventually compromised -- the final cover will have the title as you see it, but the names in another (boring!) typeface.
Congratulations on Hot Frog's anniversary. Great work!
