First I sketched out some really rough ideas in black and white where I tried to keep things simple and focused on shape design and making a strong silhouette. After that, I scanned it into photoshop and created a really rough version of the 3/4 views where I was able to focus more on designing areas with high detail and areas with low detail. After that, I cleaned up the sketch on a separate layer with the pen tool and made the gray scale versions on a layer underneath it. I think coloring it was the funnest part because I got to play around with layer adjustments and textures. Hope this helps! :)
Haha, no problem Davin. :D Shoot me an email (probably the easiest way to reach me) or post up your questions on here. Hopefully I'll see ya at CDA next term!
