The Sum of my INKtober

As far as keeping up with doing INKtober drawings… I've done them every day so far.  This is one of the ones I'm most impressed with.  It's been a fun challenge, something I'd like to keep doing in my free time.
Say hello to my impression of Nico Marlet's concept art style!  The How to Train Your Dragon movies are incredible, right at the top of my favourite movies list (with some others).

"Lofty Looters" Background Sketches

As you can see, I like to draw outside of the lines.  Can't leave any leak space, after all.  Drawing backgrounds and making animatics is becomes more fun as I get better at them.  These backgrounds are for an animatic pre-named "Lofty Looters", and shows pirates escaping from the onslaught of angry tribesmen with treasure and  a surprising discovery.  I had to edit my original story, otherwise I might have had a feature-length amount of story sketches.

The first background is one I will be using to animate a heavy lift (of a pirate lifting treasure into a boat), and a push/pull animation (where the pirate pushed the dinghy out to sea).  I get to do a lot of fun research, and have discovered the names to some ship rigging and sails.  My favourite rig style is the brigantine!
