Rock Boat Guitar Update #2. Or #3. Whatever.

I started outlining some of the design in marker (which I'll have to re-do once it's covered in the tissue paper). But I figured I'd post some photos since it's actually starting to look like it's supposed to. Kind of. I still have a long way to go, but so far, so good.

The first time I used this technique was 8 years ago in a high school art class. My teacher had us doing portraits in this technique, which was pretty cool. I've been wanting to do something else like it ever since then, but never found the right project to do it on...until now! :-)

Right now I don't have a lot of the different colors on it, so it's looking a little pastel-ish...but not to worry...there will be lots of other random colors in there to fixt hat. I do think I'm going to make the yellow of the balloon a tad bit darker...just a little more orange-ish. Again, refer to http://www.therockboat.com/ for their color scheme this year. And I haven't done the boat in marker yet because I'm probably going to erase it and make it a little bit bigger. Also, next time I'm going to try to take the pictures in the daylight...that way the colors will be better, and the full size photos won't be so 'fuzzy.' But these will do for now!
