The Dragons Pearl Story - this is one of 12 illustrations created for the story: A Dragons Pearl. This scene depicts the nasty theives from a nearby village trying to steal the pearl from Mother and son. The son is about to swallow the pearl to stop the theives from stealing it....
When Rebelle 3 by Escape Motions came out I wanted to create something that really shows off its power. I normally draw in fountain pen first, but this was created entirely from scratch in Rebelle 3.
Digital art tends to be cold and impersonal, but Rebelle's watercolor simulation looks & feels like real paint... and you can undo! That's critical for illustration work, as clients often request changes... But even for personal work- it means an artist can achieve a watercolor look without being at the mercy of the medium. So the result is more true to his or her vision.
