Say hello to the pride and joy of Bricksburg! I’ve been admiring some of the awesome character illustration out there and wanted to dabble in it a little. When it comes to illustration, “fan art” is always so inspiring, along with the original character design themselves, but it’s not really something I’ve explored much. And it’s an excellent way to try out different illustration styles, too (especially with say, The Lego Movie, when it’s already coming from the animation world). I’ve never been way into Marvel characters and all that, but I sure do love me some Lego, so Emmet seemed like the perfect place to start.
The spawning season for chinook salmon isn’t for another six months, but I couldn’t wait to birth my own salmon creation. So here ya go! I used a simple three color pallet (cyan, magenta & yellow) multiplied together—which I’ve always been a big fan of because you then get a total of seven colors as they blend together in different combinations. So something that’s pretty simple and basic can become more dynamic depending on how you overlap the three layers, akin to screen printing.
Incredibly touching and inspiring to see such confident avocado. Way to go, and keep it up, friends!
I realize I’m a grown adult and a professional yadda yadda, but anyone who knows me knows I also really love farts. I don’t foresee that changing anytime. And I know I’m not alone. Anyway, I made this for you (and me, too).
