Sushi 13

I was asked to design a character for a Guess Who? style spread in the magazine Sushi 13, out of Offenbach, Germany. My brief was Human/4 limbs/Hair everywhere except on head. Here's what I came up with. Of course I had to give him a pipe and hat... It all adds to the flavour.

The TIGER

Just finished reading The Tiger by John Vaillant and I had a visual I wanted to illustrate so here it is.  The book follows the true story of a tiger that is stalking and killing men in a small town in far east Russia.  The tiger is unusually large for the area so I wanted to show that sense of scale between the tiger and the man and the stalking nature of the tiger amidst the eerie calm of the cold Primorye forest.

Working with a few new brushes here, let me know what you think?
