Hybrid workflow

These are trials of my new hybrid workflow combining vectors and rasters in Manga Studio EX4 (inked over some old frames). I'd like to eventually modify this workflow for my commercial work. The WIP screenshot shows where I used which—purple for vectors and slate blue for rasters.

In the "old world" test, the brush pen in rasters mode renders hair so well, I couldn't resist using it on the foreground figure. And having just rediscovered Joseph Clement Coll, I kept his general approach in mind rendering the 3-piece suit. Both although would be inconsistent for a real illo.

In the "dog show" one, the ability to reduce the line width of the fence, drawn first in vectors, helps to enhance the illusion of depth and to reduce the distraction from the treat exchange.
