Saloon Girl T-shirt Design - Coloring Process Video

This is for the tee-off on emptees. I've made it to the third round and my theme this week was "Western." This is what I came up with. I tried to incorporate a bunch of Western elements that interested me (saloon girls, guns, skulls, sheriffs)

also on your sketches did you redo them in Ai or Livetrace in Ai? i cant really tell from the vid lol

[lowdtown]

@TheHardcoreArtist For this one I drew the art by hand with pen and ink then I scanned it at really good quality hi-res. I used a program called cocoapotrace, which is like AI live trace on steroids. It's a japanese program, maybe I'll do a tutorial on how to use it.

Were those stock images or were those drawn by you?

@Tystarr2k2 Haha, I drew those. I can't imagine seeing those on a stock image site.
