The Floating Factory

Anyone who has spent some serious time in Photoshop knows that its true potential lies in the layers. I've played around with layers a bit on past illustration projects, but usually it would be maybe two or three. I'd keep the line art on the top layer and then have a sub-layer of color beneath it. This time around I increased the number of layers and played around with the blending modes to achieve a more painterly effect with my color. This is a drawing I did a month or so back. It felt unfinished in my book but with the color it really comes alive.
