Mighty Mugg: Mock Ups

This page is dedicated to the art before the art, it all starts with a pencil and paper.  Mock ups are very important, they allow the customer to see my ideas, so any changes can be made before any real work goes into the mugg itself.  I generally try to make this my first step to customizing a mugg because it allows me to try out several different variations and layout the character design.  Plus drawing always has been a passion of mine and it gives me a good excuse to play with markers, haha.

So when I go through the process of creating a mock up, I start with a pencil, This allows me to rough sketch, erase and make changes. Next I line or ink the drawing itself, erase the pencil marks, now I have a clean surface to color in.  Inking the picture allows me to go over with (Prisma-Color) markers without it bleeding. I hope you enjoyed looking through these mock ups and remember to check back for new ones!
