DADO - Workbook

@Carrie: mind to ask you if you have the interested in draw such things? Because I don´t think it´s worth to suggest you the class if you don´t have the curiosity in draw this kind of stuff. If YES is the answer, go for it. In the class Jake made a very detailed breakdown of what to search in the references - most of these parts were referenced of photos - so it´s very possible to came up with good designs.
But again. It´s all depends of the interested in the subject. Thanks for the compliment Carrie.

Here´s another project I would like to share here. It´s a Ipad book that I'm making with a Creative partner (Tito Petri | http://www.titopetri.com) to help promote a bigger idea of him.
I wrote and illustrate the book. He´s going to take care of the Interaction, Coding and Publish...the hard stuff.
Concept of the Characters:
The initial Layout (this part was made while watching the SVS class):
An example of how much I detailed the second pass of drawing before Ink/Colors:
And the latest preview. Illustrations are done and some pass on the Design/Page Arrangement is needed:

it´s a 10MB, mp4 videoThat´s it. I keep you guys/gals update as the project finishes.

You've developed an awesome skill level. The Machines have come out really well (I can't spot anything to critique). I like how you chop off the character's arms for the side profile for those turnarounds.
The only small critique I could see is that bird near the farmer's hat is creating a tangent and could do with a bit more space for a clear silhouette.
-
@NickA good catch Nick, it definitively a weird tangent happening there. If you had the chance to check the fliptrough preview, I fixed that in the final illustration.
*Btw. I forgot to mention that those illustrations were "sliced" so the Programmer can move stuff around. *
Thanks for the compliments Nick.

Here´s an update on this book. This time I offer some cover ideas to choose from:
D was choosed (in the end, the book is about the Saci - the little creature so it has to have him as the main element), plus the composition would favor some iteration/animation.
Next step. A tight drawing of it.
-
Your work is very good, your book project looks like a lot of fun too! For your book cover I'm liked D too. Excited to see more as this progresses. Thanks for sharing!

I personally like the dynamics of C the most, except it might be good to resize things so that the title is a bit bigger, the clouds don't tangent with the corners and there is a little more negative space for the farmer in the corner. Great work!
-
Maybe it could be tilted a little less than 45 degrees? D is my next favorite.
-
D is a good choice.
-
Looks great
-
Great work! I like choice "D" as well although I also like choice "F".
-
Thank you all for the look at the options.
Here´s a proof-of-concept (while listening the new Lee White course):
The Saci will pop from time to time and hide himself when the reader 'poke' on it.
Let´s see how it goes.
