Drawing Tomoko time-lapse

Описание: I wanted to make a Christmas-themed drawing of Tomoko Kuroki from Watamote, but for this occasion I also thought I might record my entire desktop during the drawing process from sketch to final colourisation, because I know a handful of people who were interested in seeing a glimpse of how I work. I mainly work in a combination of Paint Tool SAI and Adobe Photoshop CS3(less resource heavy than the later ones), and although the lineart is drawn on a tablet, I usually prefer to ink lineart on paper for more control. The final .psd file in total has 117 layers, and I used a "thumbnail" sketch I made earlier as a reference for composition and colouring.

This entire footage lasts about 13 hours in real time, and about half of it is dully spent making significant outline fixes, because initially I made many poor outline and colouring choices that I felt obligated to fix. Making mistakes which I fix for hours is a very common occurrence on my part that I felt would annoy people, which is one of the reasons why I never wanted to make any speedpaint videos in the first place. Even now I still don't like how the final drawing looks. =o=

Hope you like what you see anyway, and the music banter I've had with friends on Skype. Lil Ugly Mane and Iggy Pop kept me going.

The accompanying song is Television - Marquee Moon, from the 1977 album of the same name.
