Cant really see crap on the preview
finally done with this thing. the assignment was to illustrate a scene from a story of our choosing. i chose the scene when the wolf leads her off to go to "the woods" while he secretly goes off ot grannies.
Got tired of the whole generic look of the story. i mean, c'mon. . the same style of clothing and setting has been done the same way over the years. i made the place more urban and just named it "the woods." plus drawing a bunch of trees wasnt exciting for me.
time it took - 3 weeks of sleepless nights from scratch to finish.
painted completely in photoshopCS2
no ref used watsoever.
just kept painting till it looked right. and trust me. there was a lot of backtracking and undo-ing.
i need to step up my colors. i need to get better. . . .
--EDIT--
adjusted the contrast here and there. the first time wasnt the way it was suppose to look like. duno if it was the screen i was looking at or watever. was switching between a mac and PC. ..well. .watever. .

I love this piece. I think the overalll concept is really clever, and the designs for the characters and buildings are brilliant. Fantastic work!

WOAH!
Simply astounding! I wish I had half your talent and hardworkatude! I love the masks on the wolf, does he use some magiky thing to disguise as gramdma? 'Cause I don't think glasses and a dress will work this time 'round. There are so many things to look at and it's all so good! But my favorite part is the little wolf cub on the balcony thing next to the beautiful flowers.
Are "The Woods" an amusement park of some sort?

I REALLY like this. I think it's also interesting because if you look at common interpretations of the tale, "the woods" are supposed to represent, by turns: corruption, adulthood, sexuality, etc. Our modern mindset pictures a forest as a place of nature and are prettiness, almost innocence--but your urban take opens a lot more doors for this kind of interp.
Plus, of course, great detail and skill. Awesome!
