Rowan Atkinson Is Also The Man
Ok, another primary sketch for lion king poster, and a resized version of the Scar one. Though I'm thinking now I might need to try doing a full body version of the Scar poster, and frankly these both feel pretty stiff....
Which one of these two I like more is pretty easy. I don't know why i wasn't incorporating a (faux, not supposed to really be stereoscopic) 3D element to begin with, considering that's how the "post-Millennials" (ugh) are going to remember it now,,,
Jeremy Irons Is The Fucking Man
So I've been improving my mastery (or basicstery, really, but that's not a word) of the mainstream open-source imaging softwares (GIMP being awesome for painting and all but my tablet screen being possibly wonky, time to branch out); meaning Inkscape, Scribus, and the various charting capabilities of Libreoffice. It is by the way, slow as hell going. My InDesign/Illustrator experience was marred by, well, let us say a youthful inability to sit still for two minutes and learn the environment. This is proving less trying this time around.
I've started giving myself prompts to design towards, one of which is doing some Lion King posters (because uh, it's there, I guess?). Here's a preliminary layout for one (two maybe color schemes)....

Obviously I'm not going with the right hand one, the ideal palette is in yellows and greens (I've always thought Scar's best scene is the fascist musical number, so we'll be grabbing our colors from that..), I just wanted to test Scribus's ability to shift colors.
Also, I really do like these two programs, so tutorials or walkthroughs are probably gonna happen, I just might want to get a tighter grip on them first....
