Cedric the Snooze

"Cedric the Snooze"

Cedric the Snooze

drank too much booze,

so on pillows he drifted,

till his spirits were lifted.

That was another sketchbook doodle I've completed recently, accompanied by an impromptu poem.

Happy Sunday!

Happy Hedgemas!

Yes, that's right - a cheesy title.

Here are some Christmas themed hedgehogs that I've been slowly working on for the past couple of days. Awww...look how fat they are!

Done in Illustrator + Photoshop
Used my own textures + free online textures

Process:

Step 1: hand- drawn sketch

Step 2: In Illustrator - inked with the paint tool and coloured with live paint

Step 3: In Photoshop - Added some grass and gradients to the hedgehogs

Step 5: Added lots of textures, still in Photoshop

Step 6: Added some shadow definition with the burn tool and levels mask brush.

 Done!
