Day 03: Superwoman #tzadvent

Day three: Superwoman, Earth-3 evil flavored.

I picked this one because I wanted to draw a woman after drawing two men. I did it as a profile because that's not my normal way of attacking a figure. I concentrated on making a feminine profile, not as angular and pronounced as a male one. I also wanted to try inking hair and making that sawtooth pattern on the black bodysuit areas. Inking those on the Cintiq/Manga Studio is the reverse of inking on board. With a brush, I go thick to thin, to do these digital lines, I went thin to thick with kind of a flicking motion. It seemed to work well.

I also started assigning commands to my Nostromo to control Manga Studio. With the keypad, I can switch tools, zoom, undo, and use the eyedropper tool. I added undo to my Photoshop commands, too. I'm seeing that I might want to have two set of presets for the Photoshop keys, one for drawing/coloring, and one for more of the cutting/pasting/channel control that's necessary to do some of my final process stuff. We'll see on that.

I did manage to keep my pencil layer separate this time. Click to embiggen either, and feel free to suggest some characters to me. Use the hashtag #tzadvent.
