Yet another medieval inspired design. ❤ Another black and white to color. I think i’m gonna start doing stuff like this as i feel like i have way more control over stuff and it makes me objectively consider colors a little better.

So, a few months ago in school,I designed 2 book covers. These were just assignments I gave myself to evoke a story on the cover. One of those covers was Le Cran de Witche, The Witch’s Skull, a story about 3 girls who mess with black magic and end up discovering that it’s more dangerous than they think. I want to develop something for my portfolio, so I decided that I would take this story and develop it. I’ve already got a ton of ideas for the story, but no set plot yet. Things are coming together though. 🙂 My computer broke down last week when i did these sketches so I took some pictures with my phone. I kind of like the feel this gave the sketches!
Here’s the original book cover.

JEM, JEM IS MY NAME!!
Hahaha, i used to love the show Jem when i was growing up. I decided to do a redesign of the characters! This is hopefully the beginning of a project I want to start where i redesign the characters of my favorite TV shows. My boyfriend had me hooked on SuperNatural and he loves Batman so i’ll planning on doing a Bruce Tim esc redesign of the characters. 🙂 So stay tuned for that. In the mean time
