some research, for the webcomics project.

cover research for 365 samurai/DARKHORSE comics book

Voilà deux couvertures d'essai que je n'ai pas gardé pour la couv final du book 365 samouraï.
C'est souvent un exercice laborieux et intéressant à la fois de trouver le bon ton . j'aimais bien le dynamisme qui sort de ces deux illus ,mais elles ne collaient pas avec l'idée d'une couverture qui marque l'esprit !




Here is two research covers ,i didn't keep them for the final cover for 365 samurai book.
i think its a hard exercice n' also interesting too to search the right balance for get close from what we' v got in mind during the drawing process.I do like the dynamic of thoses sketches, but they dont fit with the idea of a good cover who can attract your eyes and capture your spirit.

good guys ,vilains & shinobi ninjas....

here we go again with some another page of research.
there is only one sweet character who i hesitate to draw, its the princess.
Am not really convience about her face,i'm still strugglin on her profile,who
supposed to be sweet n' naive at the same time.
For the ninja girl with the scarf,its excatly what i had in mind !!
Its not all the time like that,its complex...sometimes it comes easier and
sometime...well its more longer.
Thats exactly what happen with the princess.
