Description

...sammy....hello sammy...is that you?.......

I originally did this ink sketch a while back but just recently tried to animate it with Image ready. The result was pretty basic, it was more of a experimental excercise than anything too serious. But I really liked the original picture...the overall contrasts between the shadows and the snow and basically how helpless this little guy looks in these creepy woods. Yeah, the story is he`s a little hedgehog all alone in the woods who`s tryin to find his friends.....he will no doubt get eaten by something!

C&C welcome :), hope you guys dig it (B)

Good strong inks, I love it. Coincidentally, i gave my students the assignment to illustrate characters for a similar story with a hedgehog and a raven. This makes a pretty good example.

Great line work! I find that the best part of this piece is the way you apply the lighting to the composition. It just look very dramatic. I would love to see the close up view of the hedgehog. It looks very nicely rendered but it's hard to make out the spines.

Thats very nice and striking. It reminds my of when mole gets lost in the wild wood in Windi n the Willows (except with a hedgehog obviously) :)

This is very effective indeed and it is a lovely style. I can imagine this style being used to illustrate edgar allen poe. Cool work.

oh yeah! i love how you trace out the path, very cool piece, the perspective makes me feel like i'm sitting on the branch with that raven...great snow, the right hand tree, the way the branch curves with the path, if you did a slight deviancy so you could see the path on the other side, even just the smallest bit, would help it feel less smashed, its just that inside uppermost branch that makes it seem a bit distracting to me...

great sense of depth/perspective
superbly handled B&W contrast
really loved this one

my only idea is it would be better if you place some sort of highligh to the sides of the footsteps that are under the shadows the perfect contrast kinda looks missing in those lil spaces
