I've been doing some poster work for the drama department of my old college. This is for a show called 'Back to the 80s". This is the art without the text added. I was told the story is a bit like Romeo and Juliet.

It's really nice to do little stuff like this between my comic pages. Just to do something a bit different. The girl is loosely based on Madonna

Hope you guys like it. All comments and crits welcome.

John Rauch said...: Nice work Jimmy! I think the background fights the characters a little bit and some of the shading on the faces seems slightly out of place as well, but everything else looks great to me.; June 18, 2007 at 9:10 PM

John: Thanks for commenting. You're right about the highlights. I don't really play with tones and colors all that much. I've been searching online for good tutorials and dean has pointed me in the direction of a couple that were helpful. If you know of any, please let me know.
