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

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!
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!
ReplyDeleteCompleted 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 Alphagraphics will be making the prints and it will be kept the same style as I originally made it - with 3 separate panels.
