Usagi Dioramas

Post by roel »

I've been so busy at work I decided to take a break and do something recreational. These are some quick dioramas I put together. Hope you like them. I'm thinking of turning some in to Darkhorse for possible submissions for the backcovers. What do yo guys think?

WOW! Awesome work, Roel. I see you've also darkened Usagi's nose. And it looks perfect. Unbelievable!

It seems like something happened to the 2 other pictures with Usagi in the bamboo forest. I'll try to get it back up online

These are too cool for words. I think you should definateky submit them to Dark Horse.

It would be really neat to add some lighting effects and/or Photoshopping in some scenery in the background. That would be cool.

Great job!

Speaking of photoshop. Here's some things I did on my break. I don't really have time since I'm working on 2 movies and setting up a new company but it works for the time I put into it.

This one is like a generic movie poster...

...and this one I wanted to make like an old photograph. I purposely put a soft light on it.
