Portrait of a Troll Couple

Description

They were an ordinary troll couple, 20 feet tall and particularly fond of apple trees for snacking. They cared very deeply for each other, as they were aware of the dangers of the world. Their hairs were like vines and their skin like bark, yet they were sentient beings, capable of love and intellect.

Wooh! I've been working on this thing for the past week. It's funny how I can get inspired by beautiful, pristine Italian Renaissance sculptures and end up drawing such wild and messy things.

Anyways, I was trying to use graphite at a complete extent (no ink), but alas, I really don't like the plain gray of the graphite. So I took it upon myself to use some more colour overlay on photoshop, a technique I've been developing by myself with my tradigital artworks for the past few months. Basically, I put a layer of colour set to overlay, which affects the colour of the lines without adding an entire sheen of that colour. I could bring in different colours as well, but I wanted to keep this one at a classic monochromatic theme.

Hey, I think it turned out pretty fine for having done all of the digital stuff in less than 2 hours, no?
