EXPRESSIONS: Colouring


By inking each frame by hand with a brush tipped Copic pen, I was able to achieve the look I had in mind for the lines of my animation. My only problem with the lines, is that they do vary a lot and it could possibly be quite jarring to watch, thought personally, I like it. 

After shooting on rostrum, I wasn't sure my linework was going to work, so I quickly tried drawing it all again in Photoshop. The look I got was okay, but I decided to scrap it and continue on with my already drawn frames, finding that they weren't that bad as I had first thought.


 I coloured each frame in Photoshop, then to remove colour I turned the Mode to Greyscale, which gave me the exact look I was going for.
Here is an example of how my frames go from sketches, to inked to the final coloured pieces.
