Work in Progress (WIP) Pics - Artoyz Elements Earth Part 2!

Ok here is Part 2 of my WIP Artoyz Elements Earth, Dragon vs. Phoenix. For those that missed part 1, just scroll to my last post. I left off w/ finishing the Sharpie outlines of the Phoenix,, now it's time to add color.

People ask me how do you color in something so small and detailed, and my answer? Very carefully!

I started to add the red areas in first:


Golds and yellows next:


Why not silver next?


Flowers next - pinks and purples:


Waves are sky blue:


Completing the waves are dark blues:


Looks easy through my pics, but it's tough to go slowly over all the lines, making sure all the colors are consistent. I may have to go over some of the areas 2x to make sure the colors are nice. This whole coloring process took a few hours!

Stay tuned for Part 3!
