ILLUSTRATION: a challenge to paint in photoshop

this is one of four illustrations i did a couple of weeks back for a ugandan client. he wanted the colours of the finished illustrations tweaked towards a reddish hue, so as to have some kinda retro effect. i usually do my illustrations in adobe illustrator, but decided to challenge myself and do this in photoshop because the posibilities of colour-tweaking are endless in photoshop. i still did the line work in illustrator, then dropped then into photoshop and started painting.

not so bad, i think i'm going to be doing more and more paintings in photoshop. keep visiting, i might post the other three illustrations too.
