This is a bad photo of my first phase of creating an illustration for a children's book. Rough, light blue Col-Erase blue pencil sketch. Next, I ink it. Lastly, I tweak the contrast, fix some inking mistakes, and add some grey tones. Done. Eleven more after that.

This makes me think of The Goonies, one of my favourite '80s movies.

Hey Tom, from start to finish how long does it take you to finish one of these pages?
If you don't mind me asking.

Probably 3-4 hours. There's inking, scanning, and Photoshop grey tones added past this phase.

I like how you really captured their personalities with the way they carry themselves.
I can tell immediately who's the leader, the funny guy, and the guy who tags along

so what children book is this and I learn that step too and help out a lot and to be more careful when inking something that look good and yet scare to make a mistake. Same good when it comes to colors
