Lord McCaw

This was for an exercise I did with some of the other concept artists.  We were supposed to take an animal, find an appropriate personality, and push the caricature a bit.  I want to do another where I push the caricature further, but I was happy with it anyway, considering I did the whole thing in an hour.

    " considering I did the whole thing in an hour."

    Don't nice little boys like you learn not brag and be prideful in Sunday School? Hmmmm?

    I push caricature hard ALL the time; it's called Not Being in Control of Your Line.

    Heather: The hour comment is a little misleading, because I spent almost an hour the previous day doing macaw studies. You'd be surprised how much a head full of pertinent knowledge does to speed things up even when you're starting from scratch.

    K: If I'd learned not to brag or show off, I wouldn't be keeping a blog now, would I?

    This is AWESOME. It reminds me of my blue and gold macaw "Big Sexy". Total attitude.

    Sam! I can't find the comment where you told me what settings you use for the "Nielson Brush" in Corel Painter! I had to reinstall Painter and I lost the formula and now my digital paintings suck even worse than usual, help!
