IF - Talisman Illustration


This is my latest illustration for Illustration Friday. This week's theme is 'Talisman'. I was quite excited this week when I heard the theme, it conjured up several possible images. I sketched out one that I really liked. Below is the original sketch. Normally I do my illustrations using the scanned sketch as a guide, but this time I didn't have it with me so I created the artwork from the memory. I also did most of the artwork in Photoshop instead of Illustrator. I'm really happy with the results.

  2. You should be happy with the results. Very awesome interpretation of the word. Innocent boy accidently meets evil or power for which he won't be able to control...easily.
