ALIEN COMMISSION PROCESS

ALIEN commission steps starting with the rough prelim sketch to the final inks and greys.

The sketch was done on a comic book backing board with a regular 2B pencil. Once it was approved I drew the light pencils onto an eleven by seventeen inch board with a F Lead in a clutch pencil holder. Kept the pencils really light and loose since I knew I was going to be inking it myself and I just have to give myself the anchor points of the image and fill in the rest with ink. The inking was done with a mixture of Sakura Microns (sized 01 to 05), Faber-Castell PITT Artist Pens (sized S and F), and a Pentel Pocket Brush. The coloring was done using Warm, Cool, and French Prismacolor makers ranging from 10% to 90% and ShinHan Touch Green and Blue Grey markers. The Warm greys were used for fleshtones and some of the surrounding material like the Alien's slime-webbing. The French Greys were used for the main figure of the Xenomorph, the Facehuggers, and the Eggs. Everything else is done using the remaining markers for backgrounds, clothing, and props. There are process pics of the layering of the French Greys on the Xenomorph's head on my Instagram (stalk_danielcampos) for those that want to take a peek.
