Work has begun!

Im not going to lie, this Silke Werzinger style of illustration, isnt as easy as I first thought. Its pretty difficult. Well not "pretty" difficult. Immensly difficult.
Sketching hasnt been the problem, as I already knew my skills with sketching are weak, thats why I went straight to the lightbox.

And drawing with the lightbox isnt an issue either. No the problem lies with scanning the drawings in. They dont come up as, fresh as I would have expected. So now the major task in hand is to touch em up and dive into a photoshop mission, to try and make them look generally better.

Above is one creation, that actually didnt come up too bad compared to others, but still needs work. But I am no quitter, so I shall try to resolve the matter.
Wish me luck.
