Thread: Graphic Design Department

hey everyone, here is a rough sketch of my idea for the chapter header illustration for the introduction. don't panic, it's just a sketch, not representative of the final version. the background, behind the window, is supposed to be clouds but the photo i used was bad so it will be more clear in the final. it's really loose in the sketch and will be cleaned up for the final, although i want to use charcoal, so there will be a primitive feel to the linework. the there will be no border edges for the illustration either, creating a floaty kind of effect.

besides that all i want to do otherwise is add some sunbeam effects, or shadow cast by the girl and the window by the overhead light.
