Yep a little illo I did for the print version of the Post was re configured and stuff so they could use it on the web I kinda liked the print version better but if you don't have access to that dig
THIS! there's another one in the actual paper too of a guy behind a grade school desk. So see sometimes the print versions of things are better than the digital.
here's a version I did before they decided they needed a female as the main character in the piece. I still really like this color scheme, although there is something to be said about the colors in the final version. I worked way too long on getting this one done that I wanna show it too.
Way cool! Although both versions are good, I am partial to the greater contrast between red and blue in the version shown above. Great work, Andrew.
ReplyDeletethanks, weirdly the designer at the paper didn't think the blue and red color scheme was retro enough.
ReplyDeleteI really like the style and characters. But to be honest, I don't understand how it illustrates the story. She can't ride a bike, so she hangs out with kids?
ReplyDeleteWait, is that their mistake? Did they pair your illo with a different story for web?
ReplyDeleteprobably. the illustration was supposed to go with the whole package I think. it was a whole "back to school" style thing.
