Description

Here's the line art for a watercolor picture I'm currently working on.
I'll try to refresh the WIPs whenever I added something so you can follow the progress.

26 February 2015 - Pencil lineart finished
1 March 2015 - Added general background wash of indigo, leaving out the moon. Applied additional layers of indigo and a little bit of burnt umber for the mill and starting shadows on the mill mixing indigo and neutral ink with a little touch of burnt umber.
16 March 2015 - Adding shades and structure to the mill with a mix of indigo, neutral ink and a little bit of burnt umber. Also using a little bit of light ocre for the goat's head.
22 March 2015 - Making the ravens fly with neutral ink and adding a second wash for the trees with indigo and a bit of permanent green olive.
12 April 2015 - Adding the slopes of the mill run (same colours as the trees with some light ocre) and the shadows to both trees and slopes by adding neutral ink to the original colours. Also starting with the main raven.
26 April 2015 - Finally finished
