Tricky style & work



For about the last three days I've been walloped with doing a huge campaign for Dodge. The tricky thing about it has been that they've wanted me to do this Prismacolor pencil sketchy technique. It's not exactly something I felt completely comfortable with at first but believe me, by the time you're doing the 30th driving shot of the vehicle you get pretty proficient! The one major downside to doing this style (as opposed to my regular line work style) is that when there are changes, I almost have to start all over again. Whiting out Prismacolor is not that easy but it does have a nice atmospheric moody feel that can't be duplicated easily.

But for kicks I took about five minutes to scribble out this Frankenstein monster. Again, I probably spent more time scanning it in than I did drawing it.
