Road Construction (concept sketch)


This idea came was inspired through the Art Project system at wetcanvas.com. The assignment was to create something that portrayed a job in a fantasy world. I chose a snail and gave him a letter carrier to play off of the phrase 'snail mail.'

While sketching the thumbnail though, I decided to add in a obstacle in the form of road construction. Yet to be added is the 'construction crew' as I have yet to decide on a species to make them.

Overall, I'm happy with the color scheme. I rarely limit my color pallete when I work digitally, so I found this a refreshing change. I'm also happy with the body language of the mail carrier.

I think I might toy with the composition a little more, but overall I'm pleased with the preliminary.
