birds like bread

need i say more?

more Ted pages

flaps closed.

flaps open in big double spread (kind of)

The style here isn't final, but I figure I should at least get a good drawing in and finish off the book so I can do the final engineering for the pop up parts.

I'll post up some shots of the first pass engineering soon.

Hot Rod Ted

Little by little the Story of Ted will be done.

a little more Ted

Yeah, I did a little more tonight.

Ted the Turtle update -03

Here are a few of the pages before I decide how to finish them.  I'm just getting in the drawings, because I am still not sure what style I'll finish them in.  I figure if it works as drawings, everything else is icing.

more will be coming as I work on the page 03 open... a double flap opened

Ted the Turtle update

I'm working on the style that I want to make the Ted the Turtle book for Jake.  I'm currently enjoying the flat more iconic Ted I have drawn here, but I am not sure if I can leave the simplicity of just the drawing and a bit of color.

Here is a test of me adding texture by making the book from found scraps of paper.  I think I can make the whole thing a bit journal like (the urgent jottings on what ever can be found).  I am not sure if I like this style over all, but I find it intriguing.  I can mix painting (the bread will always be painted), with iconic Ted and then maybe mix photography (redo gears with real gears).

I'll paint it up like I normally do, and then do a simple drawing on colored background so I can compare.
