A Happy New Year, and a post-chaotic holiday season to you all! I've been traveling and writing through much of the past month, but it's become time to sit down and crank. I've got a film to finish, after all!
Above, a background sample from Beastly Things. (It's a vertical pan, hence the format.) They're being done with Sumi brush and quill on Bristol, then scanned and colored in Photoshop. I want to keep color minimal, and retain some of the feeling of a drawing, even when it's digitally enhanced. This desire to keep things a little bit messy, but still legible, might as well be my mission statement, if I had the time or inclination to make any right now. It may not be the most modern way to work, but it's my way, and I'm going to keep at it.
