This is the final Piece of the finished art for the MONKEY KING project I have been picking at. It's an illustration for a book that is going to be published in China with 78 different illustrators from all over the world doing their version of the Monkey King story. This is a detail from my final, two page spread image. I'm not showing the whole thing because the book hasn't been printed and I'm planning on using a lot of the development artwork for my next book. Two birds, one project baby!
Oh, I designed it, drew it and inked it, but my good friend and former Disney background painter, Chuck Vollmer, painted it digitally. Awesome work Chucky!
Wow, it's pretty cool to have a someone who used to work for Disney paint your work digitally. Came out so freaking nice, too. I can never get enough of "Journey to the West".
