Red Socks

After 3 nights of messing around in Illustrator and Photoshop this pin-up is finished. I originally sketched her back in 2006. I was going through a bunch of my old sketchbooks recently and decided to see if I could turn it into a finished piece. Additionally, I tried out a bunch of techniques to see if I could speed up my workflow. Overall I'm happy with the results as well as the things I learned through this exercise.

She and other works can be seen in my gallery of course.

I've got a lot of stuff I'm working on right now... so stay tuned for a big announcement soon.
