WHAT'S BEHIND THE DOODLE?
It is actually my highschool friends who inspired me for this doodle. So each character represents one of them. I liked to teased them back in the days that they are extraterrestrial beings and not human. And that is why I called them the "My Alien Squad".
And some of them were inspired by my own drawings from before but I drew those traditionally by hand. So I guess this my first doodle on digital.
PROCESS
First I started with the background. I painted it with dark blue and I also added the platform of light red.
Now I'm ready to draw my first character. It is kinda hard to draw using a mouse alone without a graphic pad but I got used to it eventually.
Then I colored it first with the base colors.
Next step, I added the highlight and shadows to achieve the slime effect the I want.
I colored his shirt next and drew some additional lines.
Then I colored the other parts.
And to make it more slimy, I also added some splashes of slime.
I added next character. Again I will start with the outline.
Then, I colored it.
And I added the facial features.
And then, the slime splashes.
I added the other characters one by one with the same procedures.
And now my squad is done. Next I added some planets on the background to make it look like they are in outer space.
Lastly are the stars. And it is finish.
