My 1 1/2 Year Project Completed

After 1 1/2 years and plenty of complaining about my "timeline" from my brothers and husband this project is finally completed. The last step is getting prints made and put up for sale on my Etsy account.

Here is a photo-log of the process. I'm so happy it's over and pleased with the final result.

The preliminary sketch:


My workspace:


Supplies:


Starting to take shape:


The first panel was the left one:


Finished the middle:


Working on the right:


Characters completed:


The perfect background color:


Left panel with the background color:


Middle panel with background color:


Right panel with background color:


The finished product:


I was surprised at how much the blue background color changed the entire look of the piece. It makes the characters really pop and almost adds a cartoon-y feel to it.

I hope you like it and I'm sure my brothers will be happy to finally have their painting done. Love you guys!

  1. LOVE!!! What size is each panel, or is it overall? Are you going to do the prints so its the same 3 panel layout? I hope you get someone who can do a good job at making the prints!! I got to sit in on the process of a pro doing it and it was really helpful to see! Good Luck!!! I love it!

  2. Completed it is 3"x2" but each panel is 2"x1". Alphagraphics will be making the prints and it will be kept the same style as I originally made it - with 3 separate panels.
