I sea nothing wrong with my new pet...
Portrait of a Monster as a Hang Man
It's that time of year when all things wicked walk about-- Halloween! These were for AmericanGreetings as one of their new line of Halloween e-cards.
I did storyboards for another one which you can check out on the storyboard side of things here.
For this card, you can upload your own picture as part of a spooky hallway of creepy characters with a hint of misfortune ala. the Haunted Mansion. Moving to the tune of "The Addams Family" theme, the portraits animate to life to the ::snap, snap:: Try it out for yourself here !
The General: May he rest in hair piece
Lady Dashwood is a fan of sharp wit
One of them didn't make the cut and only passes by as a blur, but was one of my favorites...
...so here's a little spotlight on the painting process for the "Guillotine Twins":
You can see I referenced a combination of Thomas Gainsborough, Mark Ryden, and Asaf Hanuka-- one part classic and two parts contemporary~ The twin on the right actually loses his head in a step not because of any nod to the deadly contraption, but because I was trying to make them look alike ;]
Going back further in the design timeline and more process goodness, the above is an initial sketch of ideas done in one of my go-to mediums for art and drink: coffee
Hope everyone carves and paints themselves a fantastic Halloween~!
