Garbage Pail Project

This project in my Digital Illustration class was to recreate a Garbage Pail Kid cover of ourselves. Historically, these vintage comics would portray some grotesque thing happening to a baby. In my case, I made myself burning over a camp fire with the title "Lit Lena." I sketched this first then I went into each thing in it's own layer playing around with the different brush type to get the ash effect. I drew everything by hand and chose a red gradient as the background.
