August or Oooooh

In the beginning of 2009 I came up with the idea to create a birthyday calendar with my baby character. I didn't get to it till nearly 3-quarters of a year later, but there you have it.

The idea was to draw and ink 12 pictures (manually), colour the figure in Photoshop and do the backgrounds with watercolour paint.

The final one. I coloured this one last because the layout of the drawing wasn't right. I had to shift some things and because of that add some new line work, but at least I didn't have to redraw the lot.

And with that, my 12 pictures for the calendar are finished
