- The poster -

The Poster is a synthesis of the markest traits of the character, we can make it taking the darkest and the brightest tones. Through the use of forms, colors and textures we can create a great rendition to whatever we want.

Take a picture and let's go there!

- Creative Process -

1. Choosing an awesome picture

As you can see, the picture shows a ready to fight Michonne , with a strong and hard look. It is perfect to represent the traits of the character.

2. Synthesize the blacks

We have to take the markest traits before the color. There is no doubt that is the most important step because we take the facial expression and everything else.

Her hair is not soft, so draw it like this to make that sensation. The clothes is a quite different to her hair, use the border of the vector pen with the curve of the folds.

Here is a look with all the black shape done!
Can you recognize her, right? -

3. The color

Let's choose an attractive color palette. In this case i've used the Blue/ Green analogy with different tones to transmit a different way to see her. Now we will draw brightest forms of the picture with the goal of generate a balanced gradient.

She looks plane. But don't worry about that at the beginning. Keep playing with the gradiant of different tones of the same colors .

We are almost there! This siynthesize has 5 shapes of color, it will change depending of what level of detail you want. Remember to add the shine with something close to the white.

Don't you think that she looks beautiful?

3. Typography

We can se the same font of the show (Dead Kansas). So i wrote her name in the top of the background to create a better 3D look. This font has the peculiarity of being elegant and wild at the same time.

Lets play with the planes now! We have here Michonne on the front, but if we add the text behind her we have 2 planes now creating a cool sensation of a 3D form. The "Walker" is a great touch because it gets darker and more horrifying.

3. Textures

The final step is in the textures above the synthesis, as we are talking about a Zombie TV show again ,add some dirty leather, stones, mud, and whatever you want.

Adobe Photoshop allows you to play with the opacity of the forms, we do not need all the textures at 100% because they are strong. Just melt them with the draw until you get what you wanted.
