Okay, so, Im actually rather happy with the watercolor process so far, the tragedy lies in my scanner. It cannot scan in a non blurry piece for the life of it, so i'll have to take all my images in to be scanned in clear before I can do any computer editing, which is a downfall. Anyway, heres what I got so far...
Subject One:
The White Rabbit
Heres the (albeit) horrible scan in of my White Rabbit. I fiddled very briefly with the saturation in the computer, but have yet to give it full attention due to the low quality of the scan to start with. I cant decide if I want to add some digital effects in via photoshop yet or not. Im rather enjoying the texture to the piece however.
Subject Two:
The Red Queen
When I first started sketching ideas for the queen, I had her very sultry, but soon decided against that. She needed to be sexy, but not too much, which I felt would be expected of the Queen of Hearts. But she's not just a normal queen, is she? Shes flippin' mad. So I have her more coy than my initial sketches, with roses and mini crowns floating in the back. Unsure on colors yet but leaning towards deep rubys, golds, and blacks. Some purple tones. This will be a very saturated piece.
Subject Three:
Alice
Heres my Alice. I wanted her outfit to be very sexual to contrast the little girl image of Alice, but I kept her face a full mask. It will be painted start white, with rose colored cheeks and lips, to play off that child image everyone has. Her corset will be that beautiful baby blue, while the frill, bow, and most likely the stockings will be white. Hair is blonde of course. Unsure on background colors ...thinking a wash of blue...? So far this is my least favorite of the set. Unsure what it is exactly, but something isn't meshing to me.
Color suggestions welcome!
