Original Sketches
For those of you curious about how these bookmarks were made: I sketched the bookmarks on a Wacom tablet using Photoshop. Then I inked the drawings in a program called Manga Studio. Finally, I took the inked drawings back into the Photoshop and colored them.
Here’s some of the original sketches.
