Ed and May On The Moon - Surreality
🕑 Added 2019-10-31 17:00:02 +0000 UTCThis is a commission I was doing periodically through January-March, put on hold for all the Smashbits and Strivfe work I was doing, and then finally finished this week, for my friend and patron Cassie, aka NintendoGal55! Cassie's idea is based on an episode of The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, in which Pooh and Piglet get lost in swamp, covered in mud that they wear like uniforms, and believe they are lost on the moon because of a campfire story. She had an idea for a fanfic in which Ed and May find themselves in a similar predicament and this is my illustration of that concept.
For Part 2, we have a much more complicated background based on Ed's hallucinations in 'Boo Haw Haw'. After talking about this concept for a while with Cassie and reaching the background stage, I found I couldn't decide between it just being a creepy forest or doing Ed's full-on Boo Haw Haw backgrounds. The sketch of this background didn't give me much confidence in my abilities but it was such an intriguing idea, I wanted to see it through. In the end, Cassie decided it was worth it to commission both versions and here we are today! I gotta say, that really increased my appreciation for the backgrounds in BHH, the lighting effects just in the linework alone are so much more complicated than the show's usual background lineart. Very impressive style in that special.
Happy Halloween!
