Happymo

I drew this to go on my new portfolio site over at:

The aim was to do something using red, yellow and blue to match the theme, and to make an image which gives a good overall feeling about my art style. Something bold and fun.

For some reason it came out as a very happy looking girl in vaguely emo clothing. She is a happy emo? A Happymo?

...I dunno. It's nothing too special, just a little thing. I produced that printed dotty effect by duplicating the colour layer and putting a halftone effect on there, then lowering the opacity of the toney colour layer. Te resulting effect gives the feel of an old printed comic. Because I didn't want to shade this, it needed some kind of texture to the colour to avoid looking too flat.
