Lollipop Guy ~ Watercolor Painting Process

In this Instructable I will show the painting process of my latest illustration.

PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO FOR THE STEP BY STEP PROCESS, THANK YOU :)

Before starting I ink the drawing and erase pencil strokes.

I paint the skin with orange / red and purple, using several layer of paint.

I paint wet on wet the base colors of the jacket (grey and red).

When paint dried, I add shadows with darker colors (blue / purple).

I paint the first wash wet on wet with black (for pant) and red (for shoes).

When paint dried, I add new layers of colors.

For the pants I paint shadows in blue and black, while for the shoes I used white gouache, dark red and blue.

I paint white reflections with white gouache, using it with a dip pen.

I also use the same technique for drawing seams of the clothes.

For the background I paint wet on wet using black and indigo colors, leaving empty spots all over the color stains.

This is the final result, for the step by step process please watch the video I attached. Thank you :)
