In my last two posts I’ve mentioned that I work with an artist friend who does the design work for a lot of my projects. I really like what he comes up with so I thought I should write a post about him and how our process works.
Most of the time he begins with a sketch that establishes the structure of the character and a follow-up color comp so I know what color wool to use. Then I start sculpting. Not only do those sketches turn into a wool doll, but most of the time he brings the illustration to a more finished stage. That’s what this image is. I love the old timey look he gave to Red and the wolf.
He has a website that is a full of his illustrations, the stuff he does when he’s not designing my projects. Check them out at www.vincedorse.com
