Atalanta's Footrace - Colour Rough


I put the line onto an existing texture I had and added a quick layer of digital colour to Atalanta. When I was positioning her body on the page, it was difficult to find the right place for her. I made her bigger, and cut her head off - and liked the result so much I didn't think to put it back on again.

As much as I like the myth, the intricacy of the characters and story in the Judgement of Paris is much more appealing. I also like the fact that it is a better known myth, so you're more likely to recognise it when you see the illustration.
