Art+Concept Art

I really shouldn't have jumped into drawing the art for Maletilla without some practice to get back into drawing. The stuff comes off as a bit stiff and... well... unpracticed. I can at least say that my hold over two-point perspective has grown. Three point... RIP. Don't bother for awhile. One day...

See that establishing shot? I worked my ass off for that. It may have killed my appetite for backgrounds for some time. You'll see with page 2.

I couldn't pull off a full, three-point perspective for the establishing. I was tempted to just ham it, but I couldn't pull it off. I also tried that with the other panels, but after those first few hours trying to work out that establishing shot kinda taught me to at least do one-point perspective for every shot when possible. I should have rested and gave myself more time between panels. I just phoned it in for the rest of em after the mental exhaustion of the first panel.

Here are some concept art for the comic with my other friend. She wants an ersatz Gustavus Adolphus, thus the semblance to him. I'm also trying to get a handle of caricature and photorealism to an extent by trying to find the essence of Gustav's face in the linework. Oh well. On to more art and mastering my minor skills in art.
