Above is the starting sketch for my first emulation. This emulation was based of the design techniques which I have already practised on my first copy. This copy included sketching, tracing the line with a fine liner, and then using brightly saturated inks to colour in. I firstly started of this process by sketching onto a landscape orientated piece of paper. This sketch would later be refined and re-drawn with a fine-liner.
Above, the image shows my refined and fine-lined sketchbook page before I started to inking process, this took around about an two hours to properly finalize and add detail such as fur.
Once I'd completed the line refining i started off with adding the lightest coloured inks on my emulation, these were in fact yellows and very light green. Due to the fact my main character is mainly yellow and orange colour ( explaining the title of the comics, which is Crazy Yellow Dog Adventures ) it didn't take long before the main part of the piece was complete. After adding detail into my characters collar, and then the darker greens into the bushes I felt the piece to dry. Once dry, I began adding the grey rock colours in which my character is jumping off and also then started on the sky. Wanting to keep in theme with the copy I was adapting this process off, I decided to really darken the background and keep it mainly black, although in parts I did add some blue hues to simulate a storm weather type feel.
