Bitten Nails Illustration

I added another gallery of illustrations done between 1994 to 1996 for The Economic Times, India. These were done in Photoshop 2.0 and 2.5, before layers were introduced in Photoshop 3.0.

I’d do a rough pencil sketch, scan it in and go crazy with Paths and Kai’s power tools, remember those. Some of the more detailed ones would end up with approx. 200 paths before my 40mb ram Mac IIci would choke.

Luckily they were all greyscale, when I started doing full color illustrations for Business Today, I’d work them up as miniatures, in half size, but that’s another tale…

This is a great resource for folks who don’t have Poser and need reference poses of the human figure. Grid views and all.

Makes me want to grab a fresh copy of Poser and start playing again. I used the first few versions of Poser in the late ’90’s, it seems to have improved a lot since those days.

The highest price paid at auction for a work of art by a living artist, and he’s one of my favorites!

Can’t really find a larger version of the painting, will add it once it surfaces. I love seeing his brushwork.

Here’s a video from the sale:
