Push the envelope

Here's a teaser of the full image... click on the pic to see the large version.




This one took many iterations and re-draws until i was happy... at which point i scanned it and cleaned it up in photoshop.

I painted over the farmer's face and torso since I had more resolution in the digital file than i could achieve using my pencil and paper. Originally I was going to have a lawn chair duct taped to the jet engine, but lawn-chairs proved to be very difficult to draw in perspective.. ultimately the sofa ended up taking its place and i had to find a way to attach the sofa to a jet engine. A utility strap seemed to do the trick.

I think i'll keep working on this one, the concept is funny. But there's too much work to be done within one week, so i'll have to re-post the finished product sometime down the road.

What's our topic going to be next week?! :D

Sometimes pushing the envelope overwhelms you

This week's theme made me think of a guy of getting trapped within the envelope, pushing to get out. Had more fun with photoshop as you can see.

This week's topic?

Well... what should we draw this week (aka. this Saturday)?

Also, I've added your emails so that everyone gets an email once there is a new post on the blog. Let me know if you don't want to receive these updates.
