Computers - Assignment 2

The artist I have chosen to pay homage to for this Assignment is Dan Chase. Some examples of his work:

Part 1 of this Assignment requires exploration into methods which will enable me to replicate the chosen piece. Fortunately my chosen artist has uploaded a timelapse videos showing in great detail how one of his art pieces was created, in the following video, the artist has scanned and uploaded a detailed sketch into Photoshop, then using various tools, continues to refine and sharpen the image firstly by layering in highlights and smoothing out gradients, then adding in some darker tones, finally he layers a textured background into the image, he also adjusts contrast and saturation to get the tone and colour he requires. I will attempt to use these techniques to complete my main piece for part 2 of this Assignment.
