The Dream Shoppe: Dark Hearts Revisited
http://thedreamshoppe.blogspot.com/2009/03/dark-hearts-revisited.html
Monday, March 30, 2009. Not done yet. Last one is though.

The Dream Shoppe: Exploration of Life - Backgrounds
http://thedreamshoppe.blogspot.com/2009/04/exploration-of-life-backgrounds.html
Monday, April 20, 2009. Exploration of Life - Backgrounds. Worked on the backgrounds a little. These were done in Photoshop. Since I'm drawing the guanacos in flash, they'll take a bit of time. They're looking absolutely adorable so far. Once I've finished drawing the guanacos, I'll post 'em up. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Los Angeles, California, United States.

The Dream Shoppe: Dark Hearts Lineup and FengHuang Turnaround
http://thedreamshoppe.blogspot.com/2009/02/dark-hearts-lineup-and-fenghuang.html
Tuesday, February 3, 2009. Dark Hearts Lineup and FengHuang Turnaround. I've gotten to the point where I realize that I don't actually know what I want from this part of my thesis anymore. I am still pushing for the original compositions, however at the same time I would like more turnarounds and environments as well. I will be thinking on this. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Saturday, December 13, 2008. Dark Hearts Character Concepts 2. Character/Creature concepts for "Dark Hearts." I didn't have time to make up new drawings for the FengHuang and Qilin for the Yin composition, so I'll be working on that over the break. Xian (the monk)'s image will be used on a different composition than the others, however I needed an image of him so I used the one I did for presenting. Tuesday, December 9, 2008.
