Creeptastic, right? |
Our next big assignment in my Narrative class is to create a mini book dummy for a children's book version of Alice in Wonderland, which in this case means designing 16 pages. Thankfully, they don't all have to be finished illustrations, so I get to experiment with doing value compositions. This was much more fun than I thought it would be (and by the way, if you ever need help designing compositions, check out Framed Ink by Marcos Mateu-Mestre. Molto bene.
Two page spread here. Am I the only one who thinks that aspen trees look like they're covered in eyes? |
I'm still awaiting the day when I'll finish a piece and like everything about it. As usual, I like parts of this one, but other parts really need changing. I did take this piece from start to finish in less than 48 hours, though, so I wasn't expecting too much. Sometimes you're just happy to get an assignment turned in on time, you know? ;)
Next week, expect a ton of character design work, because that's what's due on Monday. Until then, here's a portrait that I accidentally spent several hours on yesterday:
And that's all I have for now. Peace out, bros.
