This is my final project for my Illustration IV Raster class. The three panels were done in Photoshop using a tablet; I started by creating shapes that I wanted with the pen tool and then used that shape as a mask (much like in air brushing) to only shade and color what I wanted. Since these REAL bugs seem UNREAL I decided to put them in a fantasy-like scene.
Project as a whole 45 inches wide by 16 inches tall. These illustrations are based
on real bugs! One is the Devil's Praying Mantis and the other is a Skull Caterpillar.
The following images display close ups of each of the panels to show more detail.
