Concept Art

Let’s just verify that firstly this design is completely confidential and the purposes behind it are not to be disclosed as well.  The digital drawing above for conceptual art is for an undisclosed, TBA production.
However, I will be more than happy to discuss below more information about the art itself and not the purposes behind it.
Adobe Photoshop CC
Wacom Intuos Pro Tablet
This digital drawing is the conceptual brainchild for another project but I am allowing it to be placed here for the sake of having a much more recent work of art to discuss. This was made exclusively in Adobe Photoshop CC and was done within roughly 45 minutes. Clones of the originally desired base of the drawing were made and then discarded or incompleted as the picture with the red arrow pointing to it was soon made.
The indicated sketch provided demonstrates or showcases a very small 2D designed character with a happy exterior personality. Without blatently stating the theme behind the drawing, the character is made with thick contour lines indicating the start and end of its exterior anatomy. You will note that there is not a lot of bone structure to cite from this drawing and many of the stylistic choices that were made here grew from a small variety of cartoon ensembles.
The main influence for this particular piece? BMO from Cartoon Network’s Adventure Time show. This is indicated by the color scheme of the heavily weighted lines in the artwork as well as how from what/who the basis for the face of the character is derived from. From the outside (of the design/cartoonist/conceptualist world) looking in it would be a little difficult to pinpoint that. Hwoever, you may salso noticed that the character’s feet are derived from BMO as well. If we are discussing influences then a short list is well deserved:
PowerPuff Girls
Invader Zim (GIR)
Tiny spirits from Miyazaki’s Princess Mononoke

South Park
