New Tricks

Part of a big multipart commission I completed. The first time I had really done some art for a sizeable amount of money. This was created from an initial brief. Firstly I produced some sketches to make sure I was going in the right direction with comments and modifications along the way. I tweaked my style slightly generally to be more of an illustrative look and had to focus more on a playful theme rather than the dark edge I usually employ.

A dog was being run ragged being shown new toys and tricks, I based this design on a previous animal portrait I had produced adding a had ball and tweaking some of the colours, as these commissions are to be animated I always needed to bare this in mind for my design.
