Description
- July 2014- Ink on paper, digital coloring and text
This is my 1st of 2 separate entries in the "Books into Disney Movies" contest at
"The Time Machine" is a novel by H.G. Wells and one of my favorite books of all time, so I couldn't resist doing this for the contest. It starts in the Victorian era (around 1899) where an inventor builds a machine that allows him to travel through the 4th dimension...time. Fast forwarding through time, he ends up 800,000 years in the future! In this dystopian future, the humans have evolved into two separate races, the surface-dwelling Eloi and the subterranean Morlocks. While learning of the Eloi society, the sneaky and scary Morlocks steal his time machine...then the REAL adventure begins.
Characters in the poster I've created (left to right):
* The Time Traveler - The main character's actual name is never mentioned in the book. He's simply referred to as the "Time Traveler". He's the young inventor from Victorian England.
* Weena - She's the adventurous Eloi, and love interest for the Time Traveler.
* Dox - Short for "Paradox", this little character I created myself and DOES NOT appear in the book. (I figure all Disney animated features need a silly "comic relief" character.) He's a robot that the Time Traveler invented that happens to travel with him to the future.
* The Morlocks - The monstrous creatures in the background are the "enemies" in the book.
The entire "movie poster" was drawn by me, except the Disney logo and the text I used for the title (the font is called "Terran").
I'm thinking some day I may animate this myself, or illustrate it in comic book form. I don't know. Hope you like!

I had her wearing pink originally...but for some reason it didn't look quite right to me. So I changed it.

Ooo, very nice choice of book! I started reading it some time ago...I really outta finish it. However, I do know the story very well, and it would make for a great Disney movie! (Though I'd always be partial to the 1960s adaption.)
Heehee, I like the addition of Dox. He looks so cute! ^o^

Oh! that would be cool! I love how the characters seem to be escaping from the poster from the monsters in the background. You have a great style!

I've seen the 1960 movie to this and I LOVE it. This would make an amazing Disney movie.
I love that you added the comic relief character too. Fantastic work!

Your poster design really shows the action/adventure of the story! Β I think the font you picked goes perfect with the story and I also love the sidekick!

I love that you included an original sidekick character to go with your entry. Heehee. That's so Disney.
It'd make a very cool animated movie and I love how you designed your poster.
