With Contrast!

I photoshoped this piece to see what it would look like with better contrast. I love it!

So Far

Painting the Drawings

So last night Christian and I worked more on our art and he decided to paint the backgrounds black. This worried me at first. But after awhile I have become fond to the idea. Especially after I got my turn with them and modeled all of the figures in the piece. The black background brings a good contrast to the figures. Actually, I would rather the background be MORE black now! haha. I also sprayed the pieces with spray fixatif so that we could go in with some color. Here are the pieces at the current moment (Christian is still going to paint the gulper eel green).




And here are what they would look like with more contrast:

Drawings from Tonight

Here are a couple of images that Christian and I created tonight. We decided to make them part of a narrative about a boy named Christian who got thrown over into the ocean by a pirate. He gets into a fight with a gulper eel. But it's okay because he has superhuman strength!
