Monster practice

One of our new assignments at school is designing and illustrating 3 monsters for a competition, which we will actually submit and hope to win! The prize is pretty awesome: 10 thousand bucks, and the opportunity to illustrate an entire book and design about 70 monsters for it. And it will be published all around the world!! The 3 monsters we have to do are basically 1) a tiny vampire 2) a long legged pig and 3) a duck with boots! The brief has much more information on each monster. The book is a whole 'manual' about all different types of monsters.


I keep playing around with style. A little while ago I did the image that is over on the right- the bookish owl, and I loved it. But I still don't think that is the style for me- I want to be a bit more illustrative and use more line in my work. So here I am again, experimenting... trying to find something right for me. I'll find it soon! I just have to keep drawing.
