Artist's Comments

Here are a few pages of concepts for an illustration job I have been working on. Its for a school logo using the cougar mascot.
I posted all the images I have done, even the poorly roughed in ones so you can see my thinking. I like seeing the quick studies b/c it allows us to see inside the artist's thought process

Dude, that face on 5 is awesome. Really beautiful stuff :)

School Mascot eh? I was was commissioned to do that sort of thing a while back, only with a panther.

If I hadn't weighed the thing down with cross hatching and had any sort of computer skills at the time, I'd have probably had something a fraction as good as what you're shaping up here.

I really like this set David, showing both the bulk and gesture of your sketches. :)

This page is definitely my favorite of the three. You really have the body language "down."
:iconzebes:
dude I totally love these... perfect poses!
you being an expert when it comes to animals, could you give any hint or idea of what separates cats from other big cats?? when I try to do a cat face it tends to look like some kind of lynx or cougar, lol... no clue about that

You're freakin awesome. Great job.

These out of your head or referenced from life/video?

Really sweet either way. Gotta ask, do you find yourself watching for a really long time before you make line 1 on the page, or observe as you go and build on what you initially saw? I know the two aren't mutually exclusive, but in my experience (mostly drawing people) they don't hang around long enough to careful observe THEN draw.


The head on number 1 has really interesting shapes, and I love the thickness to the tail.
