How I work

Also, thank god I got rid of the bunches

In the average adult are 100 trillion human cells and 1,500 trillion microbes. At best you are a little more than 10% you. We're all just petri dishes with shoes.Based on information and a quote by anyletter I keep getting asked how I work, so I thought I'd post up some rough work here too. Unusually I knew exactly how I was going to illustrate this quote the second I read it. Usually though, I begin with a page or three of thumbnail sketches.I still had to figure out exactly how the figure was going to look though. Yes, there's a penis. I dropped this to make the figure a little more androgynous (although I think the stance and body-shape is still more typically male).I then looked up some types on google images, and doodled them for an hour or so, pen straight to paper (they were so quick to draw I wasn't worried about making mistakes).Next I scanned the sketches. I used live trace in illustrator to vectorise the bacteria, and added colour. I then used a tablet to draw over the figure, fixing the shape as I went.With those steps done I composed the final image. I then imported this into Photoshop, and added a little noise. Job done!
