Bright Red: Day 190

Early City Drawing

Okay, so this drawing is incredibly early on. I’m sure you can get an idea of what it’s going to be, but I thought it would be fun to post what I’m working on, as I’m working on it. Not to mention that I’ll be working on it for most of the night during two hockey games, so I wouldn’t have found time to post until after midnight if I didn’t do it now.

So, here it is! It’s not going to be realistic, but I’m planning on adding a lot of windows. I’m thinking up ways to make it so the windows are the only thing on the page with any real color. The moon will be pale, not unlike the crescent moon I did a few days or so ago, and the buildings might be shades of grey, or …maybe I’ll make them bright red! I really don’t know. I just want to convey some kind of emotion using the buildings and windows. Not to mention the fact that they are standing tall all around you.

So yeah, that’s what I’m working on. Nothing too impressive at the moment, but when I look at this early sketch, I see a lot of the finalized picture. There are just a few question marks sticking out at me. What colors am I going to use? And will those windows all fit in there correctly at the correct angles? It’s going to take some work. I don’t do scenes like this often.

If you want to see an updated version before I do tomorrow’s post, I usually post those smaller updates on Instagram.
