Alice in Wonderland

This week I went down the rabbit hole to visit some friends. I was looking through my sketchbook and found a picture of Alice that I did. So I figured it would be nice to color it. For this piece I used a combination of marker and colored pencils. Here is the finish product:

 To work on this I transferred the sketch on nice paper and used my colored copic multilinears to do the line work. The colored pens used was sepia and green. I've always found sepia to be a much more natural color when doing line art, so it's one of my often used pens.

 I started laying down the base color for Alice.

 Alice is mostly done.

Working on the mushroom.

With the base all layed down, I used colored pencils to finish it up, and add details.

Rinse and repeat.

The grass was really fun to do. The grass further back it a bit darker. I was trying to be mindful of atmospheric perspective. The further back you go, the more dull and blueish objects become. That's why I didn't ink the grass further back.

Laid down the base coat for the ground. I darkened some areas of where shadows would be.

Ground is finish!

Here are some close up shots:

That's it.

I've always found Alice to be an endearing character. What character(s) (book, movie, etc) do you find endearing?
