| final colors for red panda and golden lion tamarin |
[Mar. 2nd, 2009|02:20 am] |
hey guys! got the red panda and golden lion tamarin all colored up. the otter's taking a bit more time-
for some reason scrapbook images are not working tonight so i'll have to just put up links for now.
for the red panda i had a couple versions-
a- the original
b- tail-less [not sure if it seemed off or mucked the composition]
c- dulled colors [if the brights are now too bright since this has been moved to the earth tones suit]
also the golden lion tamarin [looking at it now i'm tempted to lighten its face]
i went with traditional coloring then brightening up/editing in photoshop. especially since the brown lines don't always scan evenly and colors get lost. hopefully these are more a help than a hindrance! any thoughts, fixins, or ideas are welcome, otherwise, i'll be sending off the final images :] |

Foxfeather sketched up the pandas and I painted them in Painter!
There are some bits I am seeing now I need to go back in and pick at. For now, I am working on the back of the box. :3

Here's the final for the Grevy's Zebra, big ears and all:) I had some fun with the lighting and of course I love working with the limited palette. The colours in this are so nice and cool. It's interesting that my other card is all warm colours. A nice contrast:)

| Card back! |

Sorry for my tardiness! I had some other sketches to show but they were lame and embarrassing.
I'm trying to mix a propaganda poster feel with a coat of arms type thing. I'd like to put some kind of motto in the banners....any suggestions? Maybe in latin so it can seem all cool and old ;)
When i ink this I want to do something bold but with some nice delicate texture lines. Heavy blacks, i think. Not dark but...i don't know how to describe it. Well balanced blacks and whites. Apologies for having to leave out a bunch of animals. I wanted to keep things sorta..kinds...in proportion though i know it's not at all exact. I also didn't want things to get too smooshed in or crowded since this will be a small image when printed.
As soon as i get some thumbs up, I'll ink it. |

Did this one originally on two feathers and then photoshoped it to make it into a decent composition for the card. I left it a little crude for the sake of the original design but freehand painting tibral designs is a challenge! I will post the original feather here soon to show how I enhanced it. I'm pretty happy with it and I trust you all like it too. :) It was more important to me to capture the 'feel' of the bear then nit picking on details.
