Think their was a slight fear of it just looking like a random topless bird especially as the other two main modern-day characters don't recognisably match the equivalent characters from the original painting. It ended up being very explicitly art directed - the positions, placements and scale of the characters, hand positions/twists, hairiness of chest, boob size, musculature of bodies (down to calf size) etc. I think it ended up being a bit too static and all agreed that at the end. In fairness to the author he was happy to start it again from scratch as a new job, so no complaints.Tom Criellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600080079296899362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-354298192322822874.post-26230667603242601432012-02-05T09:09:07.777+00:002012-02-05T09:09:07.777+00:00Interesting to see the other sketch ideas, I'd...Interesting to see the other sketch ideas, I'd agree with Colin-John and would have gone for something else but if the client wants to stay close to the Delacroix painting then you are limited in what you can do and have it still recognisable to the source.<br /><br />Will be interesting to see where you went next with this and compare.Graeme Neil Reidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05618119897218387084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-354298192322822874.post-68699895904559391802012-02-03T10:41:31.926+00:002012-02-03T10:41:31.926+00:00prefer some of your original sketch ideas. the aut...prefer some of your original sketch ideas. the author's choice seemed a little bit 'static'colinjohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13162983633050247615noreply@blogger.com
