[This is being posted as part of the hiatus for KttFF’s second chapter. The comic will resume with CHAPTER 3 on August 24th, 2023] It doesn’t read very well, in hindsight, but I LOVE the top sketch. It gives a view as Leon and Luca walk along one of the tree platforms and looks over… Continue reading Environmental Sketches – Spring Fair 3
[This is being posted as part of the hiatus for KttFF’s second chapter. The comic will resume with CHAPTER 3 on August 24th, 2023] FINALLY, the Fair is starting to look like it would in the comic! Though I do admit I am sad I never found a spot to show off the expansive sprinkler… Continue reading Environmental Sketches – Spring Fair 4
[This is being posted as part of the hiatus for KttFF’s second chapter. The comic will resume with CHAPTER 3 on August 24th, 2023] … Huh, still playing around with those modular tree base designs by this point. Well, in any case, as you can see, I figured out a more simple alternative instead. And… Continue reading Environmental Sketches – Spring Fair 5
It took quite a while to figure out how I wanted the Titanwood trees to look. The base was inspired by rainbow eucalyptus trees, but none of the canopies I tried felt quite right. Eventually I settled on the wavy, blobby forms, which I’m pretty happy with. I also tried a ton of different looks… Continue reading Environmental Sketches – Spring Fair 6
[This is being posted as part of the hiatus for KttFF’s second chapter. The comic will resume with CHAPTER 3 on August 24th, 2023] By this point, I was being better about using reference to inspire parts of my setting. It’s fitting that much of the stuff here was inspired by Ratchet and Clank, since… Continue reading Environmental Sketches – Velvinn 3
[This is being posted as part of the hiatus for KttFF’s second chapter. The comic will resume with CHAPTER 3 on August 24th, 2023] I consider this to be the point when I truly had a strong foundation for what the Fair would look like. I realized by this point that I didn’t have to… Continue reading Environmental Sketches – Spring Fair 7
[This is being posted as part of the hiatus for KttFF’s second chapter. The comic will resume with CHAPTER 3 on August 24th, 2023] A bit more finalization, along with testing out some more alternative designs for the main Fair grounds platform. This would ultimately be the last of the sketches I did for the… Continue reading Environmental Sketches – Spring Fair 8
Mostly a study of how actual cat ears work, along with rechecking the proportions of Leon and Luca. AND getting more practice with Luca’s leg structure. Every once in a while, I just kind of forget how digitigrade legs work. We also get our first peak of Ms Shepard’s height in relation to Leon and… Continue reading Character Sketches – Chapter 2 finalizations 1
[This is being posted as part of the hiatus for KttFF’s second chapter. The comic will resume with CHAPTER 3 on August 24th, 2023] Luca’s turn for some development practice! It’ll never stop being funny to me that some of these characters, I’ve drawn for YEARS now, and yet I still don’t feel like I… Continue reading Character Sketches – Chapter 2 finalizations 2
[This is being posted as part of the hiatus for KttFF’s second chapter. The comic will resume with CHAPTER 3 on August 24th, 2023] “Hey Timmy, what’s YOUR favorite piece of KttFF concept art?” “I like the one where Gage sketched out a WHOLE PAGE of details for a bathroom!” I honestly couldn’t help myself.… Continue reading Environmental Sketches – Tree Base Bathrooms
