Warm Ups, Wacoms and Works in Progress

So i'm still working on ways to quickly apply colour and values to my figures and character designs. I'm even considering implementing this into my texturing processes for modelling (in a vain attempt to create a unique style!)

I've been looking closely at Fiona Staple's work and her technique, which is very loose and involves the various tones and colours standing out individually without a blend in sight!

She colours completely in Photoshop and i've been having a go at trying out her style with some quick life drawing modelling from Quickposes.
