Food Girls Original Sketches

I’ve had some inquiries about what the Food Girls look like as sketches, so here they are!

Typically I start with an idea of how the girl will look, hairstyles, pose, etc and make a quick rough in my sketchbook. Then I surf the net for inspiration and collect reference images of colour, food, rendering style and anything else that’s helpful. Next, I scan the roughs and trace the basic shapes in Illustrator. When that’s done, I hop into Photoshop to experiment with textures and add more details.

I never quite know how it will turn out until I feel I’m close to the end. For the more recent girls (Candy Apple, Lollipop, Donut), I’ve been trying to finish them within a two week time frame.

So yep, that’s basically how the Food Girls come to life!
