Flower

concepts

Concept for Jayden's first encounter of the castle.






Idea for cover...



























Fairy ideas... :S

Defeated fairy

Birdman takes the flower to the evil fairy, and the moment she comes in contact with it, all her happy thoughts return. And when she realises all that she had done, she cannot go on living. So she vanishes into nothingness.

Everything turns into a normal forest, and the time within resumes moving. The flower dies the moment the fairy does.

corner no.

Just a few ideas.

holiday greetings :P

My scanner broke. Typical, I just get it running and it decides to konk out. These are all photos, some old, some new.

A thumbnail idea I quite like. It is a dome like castle on a hill. That looks like a bird lying in a nest.




Silhoutte corner number idea?









These are some sketches of how I think the story is going to pan out. Most of them are terrible, they are just there to give me an idea.









































Bird man in a cloak. Bird poo, and shaded face are details I'm playing with in these.





Jade. I was having trouble designing a head, I went through a few, but I really like this one.













This is a version of the fairy, which I actually really like. Very skinny, almost twig like, and the hair that permanently stands up (wings blow it up)












Another fairy idea, inspired by a real person. I forgot to rotate, just twist your heads...









Sketches of the Goblins. I REALLY like the big dumb. And the cat looked funny, so I kept it in there.








Assorted sketches. I dislike most of these, except a few. The cat I think is adorable though.

My Jayden and Jade, I don't like this Jade. But I really really like Jayden. The only problem is I had to colour it in that old program, so I had a lot of trouble, and am very limited in what I am capable of. But I don't mind how the colour turned out. It is the basic idea.

I really like Jayden with Purple eye




















This is a building drawing. I tried to get a feeling of how this 'castle' would feel in the forest. I actually really like how it turned out.This is some of my life drawing. This is an edit of that house , but I changed it to try and make it simpler, and more cagey...kind of worked.


These are some studies of different flowers, to see how they feel, and look. I also drew an old man I saw on the train today. Just to help myself see what ages someone.










fairy girl inspiration.

Some very very old sketches.

Style

This is my personal colour ideas for Justin's drawings. These are his drawings, but also the basic style that we've settled on. There is something that bothers me about the hungry goblin, so I will see if I can do an alternate copy in the same style.
I really like the design of the floating head.

These are some real pencil, in lots of different styles. I actually quite like some of these.

These are some hungry Goblin designs. I don't really like any of them, except maybe the one with the big under jaw. And no, I didn't make the lines as bold as our style, but it's just a sketch.

Retro...images

Just to try it out...

I don't know how often my group checks my page. But there are some pages of Retro styles, just to see if I can inspire anyone. http://www.scribd.com/doc/11459584/Retro-Cartoon-114 Thanks Neil!

Fairy

I think these are the last of my images, which I have found very difficult to get onto the computer until now.

These are the good and bad version of the fairy. Although, I think we are not going to keep this evil version.

I was playing with how old the Cursed man (Endy) would be. My first sketch was actually him in the time before sophistication, like Adam and Eve, but then I decided that a little bit more modern (knight) would make him more appealing. The Knight in shining armour.
