final outcome for Pinocchio

Pinocchio: Veil of Lies

Graphic Novel

Rated M

Pinocchio

So this is my character design for the protagonist. Here he wears a victorian-style jacket, a sash on his right and left hip, an ornamental belt design with several weapons hanged near his waist and crotch area and a pair of boots. He also dons a venetian mask that has a long nose with a sinister face.

Mock Up Page

Working on placing the illustrations now. I feel like sticking to this very grungy style i'm working on; trying for a more Ashley Wood/Christopher Shy art style. Obviously I need to do more panel work in my pages.

Trying different illustration styles

I like this style because of the gungy, textury and sketchiness of it. It is style that I am more comfortable with right now.

Practicing Light and Dark

I was practicing my drawing skills and tried to achieve something close to Ashley Wood's style.

Influential Illustrators

For this fairy tale assignment, I have chosen to have the final outcome be a graphic novel. If I had to choose one influential artist, it would be Ashley Wood. He has worked on many graphic novels and one of my favourite novels are Metal Gear Solid and Spawn. He uses mixed media by combining oil painting and digital painting.

My synopsis of Pinocchio

There lived two engineers, Geppetto and Fabrizio in the late 18th century. The pair lived a normal life fixing machines and other clockwork mechs. Soon, they made a name for themselves as they're called out by the royal head of security and employed to work as lead engineers in their military faction. When they've realized that they're being used for something much worse, Fabrizio and his father were ordered to be executed but managed to escape their ordeal, only leaving Fabrizio heavily injured in the course. Geppetto saved his son by installing mechanical limbs that gives him super human strength. General Stromboli then resumes with his tyranny by using their improved security and firepower to overthrow the current royal empire. Having used and deceived, Geppetto and Fabrizio vows to kill the general and set things right all over again.Thus, Fabrizio becomes the masked assassin feared by the people, "Pinocchio"

I Stencil

Since I forgot to bring my stencil for my last class with Mr. Choy, maybe I should upload a time-lapse of me producing it.
