WIP Wednesday - character studies

Right after Justin Gerard's workshop I got to play with some character design for a book series I enjoyed reading -  kind of as a 'try out' for a potential job.

Normally I don't participate in spec sorts of work, but I quite liked these books - and it was a fun, somewhat 'older'  venue to play in. :-)

We'll see where, if anywhere, it leads....?

Justin Gerard Workshop - Day #2

Lots of hard work today!

(see us slaving away?)

Justin showed us a digital example of how he refines his characters -

(see the 'after'!)

And a toned-drawing of Long John Silver example...

We all worked diligently on our own characters -

Catherine's lemur-Billy Bones.

Didzis's boar - Long John Silver....

(you can click on these to see a larger version).

John's vampire-bat-Billy-Bones...

Jo's possum-Mr. Wickham (from Pride and Prejudice).

Brian's goat-Billy Bones...

Misael's pirate-squirrel....

Amanda's muntjak-vampire Billy Bone's.

Sam's bison Captain Flynn...

Joel's mandrake - Long John Silver...

...and my toady Mr. Collins....
