JULY CONTEST: Albert needs a home!

[Oana]

@KGatto I think it should be the family home... it is understood the exterior of the house should be represented (at 3/4). If Albert should live in a smaller house inside a room of the house then that would be part an interior. If you are thinking of a little house in the larger house's yard .. I don't feel that answers the "Albert lives with a family as a family member" idea...

@Oana @Kevin-Treaccar
I am thinking of adding my "Albert" to the scene just so the details on the house will make more sense if the viewer knows what/who Albert is. Since I didn't do last month's character design I'm making a house for a current character of mine.

[KevinTreaccar]

I read this as exterior 3/4 shot. Is that correct? Or is it just 3/4 shot and can be interior?

[Oana]

@Kevin-Treaccar I think the whole presentation reads "exterior"... It mentions "a building", it should look "suburban".. maybe an interior could be suggestive too but I think it would be more difficult, no? I also looked at the previous challenge "a house for a Yeti" and those were all exterior representations.

I almost always include linework in my work, so I'm trying something a little different on this one.

Here is my house design. Time to load it up to the template.

@Joe-Koz I love the footprints leading to the splash in the pool!

Albert arrives at his new home in England. I hope the colours are ok, I did the value / tone thing first so fingers crossed it has worked. Little Albert bear should be the focal point.

I’m much more comfortable with coloured pencil techniques for colouring in.

Here is my entry for july. Looking forward to seeing more homes for Albert.

@chrisaakins this is amazing. I love the style choice, everything about this home is appealing to me. Great work, you’ve got my vote!

[Jeremy Ross]

Submitted early for a change…Really loving the house entries so far!

[chrisaakins]

@Asyas_illos thanks so much! I am glad you like it!

[Rachel Horne]

@chrisaakins looks exactly like the kind of house I'd like to live in!

Here's mine which is also a combo of the classes I've been taking on the Foundations Path (can't wait to do Creative Comp, the Light and Shadow Class, and the more in depth perspective!). This month I also tried Will's dry brush acrylic class which is what I tried for this illustration. It's Albert the Beaver, adopted by rabbits and who loves his new brother. They are in his beaver den clubhouse. Can't wait to see more of your Albert houses!

Albert the Pig and his new home.

[NicolaSchofield]

My Albert is a polar bear cub who travels south to an English seaside town for his summer holiday. He falls in love with ice-cream and makes friends with the son of the couple who run the B&B where he's staying. He starts helping out around the place and at the end of the summer they invite him to stay.

(the architecture of the house is based on the hotels around Brighton, where I recently visited :))

There's more I wanted to do with this but time is getting short so this is where I'll leave it.
