Process - Stage 1
Initial sketch ideas
Thoughtful view with female silhouette standing behind Matt
Direct view, contains most elements but mirror and monster Matt can not be seen
Tighter angle - will need to expand view to add rabbit. - maybe rabbit is on log looking into the mirror too.
Idea for what Monster Matt could look like
Shocked Matt - all elements are present though pose is looks a little theatrical
Another closer view with monster Matt coming out of the mirror a little. Acid trip elements are also escaping the mirror
Process - Stage 2
Suggested sketch ideas
Closest to original image sent by Matt - Shotgun instead of pistol, would probably add escaping acid trip too
Slightly different angle - can see mirror side on, can see monster matt escaping
I like this view but cant see Matts face so monster needs to look more like Matt
Different angle again, can see a little more of Matt's face and more of the mirror - also like the perspective
Process - Stage 3
Refine chosen sketch idea
Work up the chosen idea in pencil. Starting to bring cross my comic style and detailing.
Simple use of colour pencils to convey the focal point
