Qpop Tokusatsu Show + some wee foxes

 This is my piece for the Qpop Tokusatsu show...a cuter take on Godzilla, Mothra, and King Ghidorah. According to the event page, "Tokusatsu (特撮?) is a Japanese term that applies to any live-action film or television drama that usually features superheroes and/or monsters and makes considerable use of special effects (tokusatsu literally translates as "special filming" in Japanese).

The show opening is on Saturday, Sept 15 @ 7 PM. A lot of great artists will be participating, and it should be an amazing show. Hope to see you there! Here are some process pics:

this is how it usually starts, with crappy thumbs in PS

Sketch. After I'm done sketching in PS I'll print it out to do a graphite transfer

i usually use extra watercolor paper scraps as my palettes

 And here are some sketchy foxes from a while back :)
