There will probably be more of me posting this weekend. But I kind of again want to reiterate the fact that I want to focus on 2d. I guess it was my fault for finding that guy that does all the sweet 3d art. But I was more inspired by The Triplets of Belleville and kind of want to continue on that concept of caricatures and exaggeration of people BUT textured and colored like the 3d art that I posted. So basically I want to make a traditional animation short and with smoke and mirrors color, shade, and texture it (in photoshop and harmony) with that same gritty, creepy feel.
This is a REALLY rough concept drawing of the main character of the short I want to do. I’ll post up the story later but I just wanted to clarify.

Good start! OK, the look-test is great! But the character is getting too locked-in. Here is what you need to work-on for next week (I have full confidence in your ability to get the gritty look so don’t worry about that for now): Explore the shaping of your character. Create silhouettes, work with shapes, find her! Work quickly and with a big brush (pen, whatever, you know what I mean). No noodling!
Due for next week: 30 drawings of your character… keep them quick! Don’t focus on details… just sketch, have fun!
