Gift badges for Crimson and Noma! These badges are watercolor with a little gouache, and black India ink for the background. I am loving how the black ink makes the colored parts stand out. I leave a white border around the edges of the badge by masking it off with artist's tape, and then when it's all done they live in their own protective plastic sleeves.
I'm taking these badges as commissions at the con itself, but also as pre-orders. See my journal for pre-order info!

do you paint the black background first or the character?
