Treehouse – Final
Here’s the completed image. It was designed as a full spread. That means nothing important in the way of the center fold. Also, not much is happening on that right side because it would have a fade over most of that half with text overlaid.
Treehouse WIP 3
Here’s the scene with a few more leaves and the characters roughed in. I’ll adjust the placement a bit and work on the proportions a little. Need to figure out how to do the folds on the lower girl’s shirt. Then comes final lines and coloring. 
Warthog
Saddle-Billed Stork
Scimitar-Horned Oryx
Look at those horns!
Like many things, this was a more impressive shot in person. all those horns all going the same way arching over the little herd… I dunno. But in the photo, the background detracts, so I desaturated it. Then there’s how brown and white aren’t really colors that pop and it looks silly if I bump them up too much. Oh, well. At least their horns stand out from the trees so you can see them well.
