I just finished another scene for my Jailbird in my Treehouse project. It is evolving slightly, the little girl's clothes have changed a bit (I think it will be implied in the story that she goes to some sort of Catholic school where uniforms are necessary,) and I have added a sweet, semi clueless Grandma character who is totally in the dark about the convict living there. I liked the idea of the little girl living with just her Grandma in a little old person house, and contrasting this with all of the roughness and vulgarity of a secretly hidden convict (who puts up with the little girl's subtle influences-such as crazy straws in his coffee). In this scene, the Grandma is wondering when the little girl started drinking coffee and eating so much.
Haha, well he is clearly a convict now! (I didn't know before!) Haha, it was such a wonderful sketch but it really comes to life in color. I love the kitchen color scheme! And really cool with the grayscale room as contrast. Looks so great!
ReplyDeleteThanks Cindy, I'm glad you like the colors. I wanted to make the kitchen quite a bit lighter than the dark room the convict is hiding in.
DeleteThis is really cool! I love your style :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Nic! I feel I'm finally getting comfortable with this new style, so that's great to hear.
