Rough Pencils to Rough Digitals in Ninety Minutes! |
Since then I’ve been working on a few ideas.
Here we have a rough for an illustration focused on a young wizard battling monsters and masked miscreants in a mid century metropolis.
I was inspired by a number of things I enjoy; A young magician establishing themselves in a modern city comes from Kiki's Delivery Service. The pulp hero in the big city with a flare for the fantastic is taken from cartoons like Batman The Animated Series and The Legend of Korra with the big monster being battled by super psudeo-science is borrowed from Lee and Kirby's run on the Fantastic Four. I also want to give a shout out to Michael May's Adventureblog for his recent King Kong posts that helped fuel the fire.
Still working out were I can go with this and how I might be able to involve mechanical men, femme fatales and other colorful characters!
No this am so looking forward too!
ReplyDeleteI guess that means I'll have to actually finish it then.
