Jungle Mail - Process Breakdown
Finished Illustration
Completed digital illustration made in Clip Studio Paint. This drawing is used as my business card design on the back of the card. Each card has a vertical design featuring a different animal. The love birds, Lemur, Sloth, and Toucan each on their own card. I use these when I ship out orders from my shop so I wanted the theme to be delivering mail!
Initial Lines
This time around I refined as I went. So i really didn’t have a thumbnail sketch for this, I just kinda jumped in head first.
Final Lines with Background Leaves and Branches
Same lines as before but on a new layer I drew in some lighter linework for leaves and tree branches to add more depth.
Base Colors
Every color is blocked in. At this stage I was leaning more towards a light blue/green color palette.
Finished Illustration
I was tempted to leave it the blue color scheme like in the previous image, but I decided to play with some orange and red Overlay layer modes on top of the image which led me to this end result. I particularly love the yellow sloth :]
