Stone Maiden Final

OK, I admit it turned out better than I expected, for all the panic I put myself through beforehand. But I got a C for the final grade because it ended up looking a lot better vertically... which is not a children's book format. :P Oh well, lesson learned.

Final lineart

I'm gonna stick roses in at the bottom and on the vines on the girls. But lineart is finished for the most part. Due in four days oh god.

Our first assignment for Children's Book Illustration was 12 roughs. Here are the most successful ones~







I got a good review but I need to make my style less "anime." I get that a lot. This change is going to be time-consuming and difficult, but for the sake of my grade (and I really do like and respect my teacher), I'll try.

I'll be uploading progress shots as I go.
