For the IP exhibit, we have to make a postcard for...actually, I'm not quite sure what its purpose is. I guess it's like a save-the-date sort of invite that you hand out to people to remind them to come see the thing you killed yourself for. Whatever the reason, us students have to come up with an image for the front. Since my pages aren't colored yet and I didn't want to color a page ahead of time (I want to keep my colors as consistent as possible, and it will be easier to make it all cohesive if I do the coloring in a chunk), I made another image specifically for the postcard. Also, I wanted something with a coral reef and an octopus for my postcard. Just because. So! Here are some process pics! Apologies for the crappy quality, I was using a new app for camera work and it was a poor life choice.
Step 1: Ink it all up.
Step 2: Yellow layer.
Step 3: Blue-green layer.
Step 4: Red layer.
Step 5: Add water (see bottom)
Step 6: Add finishing touches.
I'm pretty happy with how it all turned out, and it's been SO nice to watercolor something. So psyched to get to that portion of production. And here's the final product (minus some more ink detail that I'm adding later)!

I think I'm going to spend today inking some pages I already sketched, it's been so hard to motivate myself to sketch lately...
