Here's how I created the Variant Cover of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe #1 featuring She-Ra.
First off, the sketches I submitted for approval. All drawn in my sketchbook at about 3" x 5" and colored in Photoshop.
The pencil version drawn on 13 x 19 " Bristol board with light blue and HB Lead.
Rachel Dodson's inks over my pencils using a #2 Windson Newton Sable Brush and Acrylic Black Ink.
Flats created for the cover to begin the color stage in Photoshop.
Intermediate stage of colors - established all the midtones and started rendering.
All the fx and final cleanup.
Lot of fun doing this cover, hope to enjoyed seeing how it was made!
