Did some more inking.

All this mess is like three frames of the turnaround.

Messy messy mess!

I did all 360 degrees of Rabbit with the help of the magic arrow. And now I’m inking.

Any ideas about the arms are greatly appreciated. Feel free to suggest.

More unholy mess. Sketchy style.

I’m still flirting with ideas, here, figuring out how to spin Rabbit. And I have no clue what to do with her arms.

I’ll figure it out eventually.

ALL DONE!

This unholy mess will be converted in a few days to actual animation. Meanwhile, I shall be drawing shot #5.

I did Bunny’s hair for the last frame, and then went from unholy mess to clean ink in one morning.

It’s amazing what I can do when there’s no rush, right?

Careful observers may notice that I duplicated and flipped Rabbit’s pose for Vintage!Rabbit and Bunny. A good artist knows where to cheat :D

Tomorrow - Colouring in! Yay!

Bunny’s skirts are done!

Don’t have time for all the rest of it, I have another busy day ahead. Which includes guests.

Colouring! Whee!

Also, the answer to “How many flappy bits can I duplicate and flip and get away with it?” Is… ALL OF THEM MWA-HAHAHAHA!

It did require moving them around a little, but I can deal.

I’m really very glad because this shot is already driving me to frustration with how much I have to do.

There’s two ways to use the blur tool - be messy and erase the excess afterwards, or put the new stuff on a new layer and merge down afterwards. The latter is great for when you need precision blur. I used both on Vintage!Rabbit. And, in the event that you want a sharp shadow, drawing over the blur in the shadow colour is the charm.

This thing has so many layers, I can’t even. I had to rename lots of them because about a dozen were Layer 27 for some reason.

Tomorrow - Bunny’s skirts, hair, and possibly the turn frame.

On to animation frames. I still have to do a ‘between’ frame for Rabbit’s turn, which involves redrawing EVERYONE… but for now, I shall focus on colouring this lot.

Shown here: the sketch and ink layers at once. My biggest problem was Vintage!Rabbit’s legs.

Most of this might not even be seen in the final shot, but I am a stickler for the details. _I’ll_ know it’s there.

Tomorrow, I shall be playing “How Much of Rabbit’s Flappy Bits Can I Duplicate And Flip And Get Away With It?” Because redrawing stuff is a pain in the butt.

And yes, I did finally decide on the corroded look for the ears on Bunny’s mirror. It just communicates better. Big thanks to the one person who gave me some input

Question for the three people who actually like these: Which colouring looks better for the rabbit ears on Bunny’s mirror - the corroded ones or the new ones?

Both effects are on the picture to the right.

The one on the left merely shows how messy you have to be when using the smudge tool.

Patina!

Before and after the clean-up. I use a modified watercolour tool to scatter random patterns of colour over the base colours. I do one layer per patina colour so I don’t fuck up the previous one. Then merge them all together for the clean-up.

Tomorrow, I fart around with the detail bits.
