Suzie & the lil' nipper 3ds max, Photoshop June 2008
Hi folks - long time no see.
Ive been doing a fair bit of freelance work of late, but ive recently had time to start making a set of illustrations of Suzie. I was bored and figured they were more intresting than a bunch of poses on a white background like i usually do.
Ive been very inspired by 40s and 50s era pinup illustrations by artists like Gil Elvgren, Dan De Carlo, Don flowers and Jack cole, not to mention modern artists like Dean Yeagle - who's Mandy character was the main inspiration for Suzie. Im hoping this is a fitting homage to that cheeky humour of old.
I also had some tips from an old art director friend to try and get the composition spot on. I hope it shows.
I should have a few more of these to show featuring Suzie in her different outfits when i get round to creating them.
