Description
i wanted to do something for children. something cute and friendly,-but instead it just ended up looking bizarre!iΒ΄m not too sure about it. maybe the whole thing is too messy?
the characters were done in ink, coloured in photoshop. the background was done in flash and photoshop.
the characters are from "The Wizard of OZ".

I love your style here! I have never seen a picture from The Wizard of Oz that didn't feature Dorothy, and that must be why this one stands out from any other. Great job!

thank you! most people seem to like that cowardly lion,- he was the first one i came up with, and since itΒ΄s so easy for me to identify with a coward i think heΒ΄s my favourite as well!!!

i like your character design. fun to see old characters in a new light. i would prefer it in colour i think...

trippy- a good exercise would be to come up with various guises for each character

shootspeedkilllight In reply to blisterine66 [2005-09-24 18:19:09 +0000 UTC]
what is "guises"? (not in my english vocabulary yet!)

blisterine66 In reply to shootspeedkilllight [2005-09-24 18:23:59 +0000 UTC]
a guise would be what form of clothing you are wearing
your outward appearance.

I think it has a childlike charm to it..I like the fact its in black and white staying faithful to the movie

thanks! i quite like the colours that have been put on the film though. i like painted movies...i donΒ΄t know what the tecnical term is!

FuzzChile In reply to shootspeedkilllight [2005-09-24 15:11:11 +0000 UTC]
I'm a big fan of that too I love seeing films that have been painted ..more vivid than reality thats just one of The Reasons I love Micheal Powells movies ..no one on earth can can up with colours like his films ..for example The Red Shoes or The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp.. I used to think life before 1969 was all in black and white when I was little

shootspeedkilllight In reply to FuzzChile [2005-09-24 15:19:20 +0000 UTC]
yes, "the red shoes" is very beautyful!
reminds of calvin and hobbes where calvinΒ΄s dad tells calvin that the reason why old pictures are black and white is because the world indeed was black and white back then!

I like it. I think the characters look great especially the tinman. The only thing I noticed is the tuft of mane next to the lions left cheek is a little distracting because it's infront of the face when the rest are behind. Just a little thing though, just ignore me
