My favorite piece I created this year has to be the Slick Darter. It was such a fun concept putting together a tiger and a peacock, especially the color pallet. The final for me was the most challenging. I usually draw either characters or a background but never both with full details. These projects helped me develop my art style more. I never really shaded with color before so it helped me learn more about that. In the future I would study the color wheel more so I can use the shadow technique. I use a lot of reds in my personal works so I would put green under the darkest shadows. I would study anatomy more. I would push myself to draw hands more often. I really loved this class and it helped my art grow while also giving me a break from my college classes. Thank you for an amazing class this trimester!

I am so happy with how this turned out. I think this is the most complex drawing I have ever done. Trying to get everything to scale and look cohesive was hard but so worth it. I am so happy with how it turned out, especially the sizing of everything. I think next time I would focus more on the characters and less on the background so I can have more details in facial expressions without it turning muddy.

I was more then excited to start writing out the story map. There was so many elements I wanted to put into the story. I would love to make this into a comic series with a few spin offs. I think I really knew what I wanted for the duo to experience. On the other hand I really need to figure out Mars and his story line in the story way more.

This is a mutated large wild cat found in the south half of the wastelands. Commonly called a Slick Darter, a green demon, or just silent death. It was all but built to be an unstoppable killing machine in the jungles of the south. Magpie ends up freeing one later on in the story.

I think these 3 items fit perfectly into my world. I took a lot of different inspirations from syfy, mad max, fallout, and animals from the real world. I adore how the Slick Darter turned out and how it would camouflage perfectly. I need to remember to take more photos next time.

This is Bones' bow that he is given by his father. It something you could find at any market or make in the wasteland with the right skills. The red feathers indicate his father's secret alliance to a rebel faction inside many of the bubbles.

This ring which is commonly found around Mar's neck feature's his fiance's ring. The 10k ring made of pure silver with 3 sapphires was once Diana's. On her deathbed she took it off and told Mars to find a new love, he never did.

My idea for Mars was to pretty much make him a reflection of Mercury. It was alright drawing him but I was I could have done more but that wouldn't make sense given where he lives and his status. I liked how his eyes looked but really need to learn to draw hair, hands, and feet.

Mars Antion is an interesting, sad man. For being only 29 he is a cold, ruthless man with a broken heart. 5'8", fit body structure, a noticeable scar on his left eyebrow all fit into a 3 piece suit. He is a master manipulator who wants to take Mercury's spot as revenge for his dead fiancé who died during child birth. As the advisor he has gotten close enough that his goal is at his fingertips. I believe Tom Hiddleston would voice him perfectly.

Mercury was inspired by President Snow from the hunger games mixed with a personification of age. It was really fun to figure out how to draw older age. I really like how withered he looks but the wheelchair and legs need more work.

The inspiration for Bones came from African Wild Dogs. His design was slightly harder then Magpie's. I like how the clothes and hair turned out but the skin and hands and feet still need work.

# data[].attributes.body
With Magpie the idea came from actual magpies and how their wings are colored. I used myself as a reference photo for the pose which made it easier. I enjoyed the colors in the piece but I still need to work on hands and feet more.

His name is Mercury but is commonly called by his people The King. He has reached the old age of 120 years old way past normal living standards. He’s a fearful but smart old man that does care about his people. He’s wrinkled and haggard with barely any white hair left on his head. He’s in control only because of his family name, he used to be amazing at capturing people’s attention but never could have a child. He sits in the same chair morning and night writing new laws and propaganda. I think mike nussbaum would voice him and be very good at it. The two break into the 5th level on accident and meet him after the guards drag them in.

His name is Bones since that’s what he first found as a kid. He is 20 years old and totally soft. He’s very easily embarrassed and very emotional centered. He’s 6’0” tall but tends to hunch down to Mag’s height, he has messy sand colored hair and bright green eyes with freckles, tanned skin, he looks more human than Mag but internally is built to run highspeeds with two sets of lungs and two hearts. He wears loose clothes and always has his funky hat on. Bones is deeply protective of the ones he loves. He looks scary but is actually a sweetheart till he does have to fight. He’s amazing at fixing things including people but is even better at destroying them. He prefers the peaceful option but sometimes that isn’t an option. He is mute by choice for reasons him and his father won’t disclose. He’s always fixing things in the shop or following Magpie around like a lost puppy. I think Bones if or when he does choose to talk would be voiced by Henry Cavill. As stated before he has a major crush on Magpie and later by her side meets Mercury.

Her name is Magpie thanks to her feathered features. She’s 19 years old making her an adult in their world. While she might come across as cold and emotionless she actually deeply cares for her family and friends. She’s logical by nature and tends to value the facts over emotions. Mag, as Bones calls her, is 5’6”, black oil slick feathers for hair, yellow owl like eyes, and on the lighter side of a brown skin tone. She’s very slim but has a lot of muscle hidden underneath her baggy layered clothes. She has long sharp talons but is more skilled with map making than fighting. She enjoys exploring the waste writing down every small detail she comes across. She takes her little sister Polly to school everyday before heading out in the waste to scavenge . She brings what she finds to Rattle at the local tinker shop. I think Zendaya would voice Magpie perfectly. She knows Bones since they’re in the same town but later meet Mercury in the Bubble on accident looking for medicine.

I think I did well on this project given my lack of resources down here in Florida. I spent the whole week drafting ideas before settling on this one and sitting down to draw it. I really like how the different layers of distance turned out and the shadowing. I did forget to put a shadow under my flying creature so that is one thing I'd change along with making the bubble look more rusted to give a more aged feeling.

Unfortunately I got too into my drawing and forgot to take a picture of when I put in all the pen line work

Overall I would give myself an 8 because I am missing one of the WIP photos for my location. I am proud of how hard I worked on the location and using oil pastels on the piece to create texture. I struggled with the antimony of the Character and had to redraw her twice. I would change the character again, maybe give her a tool box and a more grunge look. I think I used my time wisely, I made two different characters and spent 3 days on the location and it's details.

1) My characters name is Alice "Red" McDaugh
2) Red is a scavenger that takes apart other engines to sell or repair.
3) Red would be found trading at the towns while keeping an eye out for London. She's just like everyone else trying to survive the post apocalypse world of Mortal Engines.

# data[].attributes.body
1) My location is a scavenger home.
2) My location would be found traveling across the wasteland while running away from London like all others.
3) All houses, towns, and small cities were built on wheels so they could trade or run away from others, especially London.

1) What media did you choose?
I choose the movie Mortal Engines.
2) How is this world similar or different to ours?
This world is set in a Post Apocalypse Steampunk world where people live on machines and make up towns running from one mega city.
3)What part of this world would you choose to live in?
I would choose to be one of the outcast scavengers. I don't want to live on the city for sure.
