Ste's Illustration Process Blog

A series of step-by-step process posts for various illustration projects.

After completing an illustration project I like to look back and analyse the different stages of the process, from initial concept sketches to finished work, seeing how faithful the final piece was to the initial idea, or looking at what worked and what didn't along the way. Also, even when I'm really happy with the finished illustration, I always think the pencil version looks better!

I love seeing other artists' work in the early stages, so figured some people out there might like to see mine. Here I'll add blog posts that show the full process of completed illustration projects, with the most recent at the top of the list.
