I decided to try something different and do a sketch using Photoshop and my old Wacom tablet.

Here’s the first attempt – my little cloaked wanderer.  Sketch /outline first, and then I’ll show you the color version.

So, this doesn’t look too different from my normal doodles.  I did it with my Wacom tablet and Photoshop, as mentioned above.  I even wanted the green background cuz I have green post its.  Unlike my normal doodles, I didn’t do a lot of detail – just an outline.  That’s because I wanted to play around with fleshing it out using layers and colors.  Which I will show you here:

I like the way this turned out.  I’ve never done a lot of original drawing in Photoshop – at least, not like this.  Yes, it’s very basic, but i think it works for a first attempt.
