I finally finished another background for my website. It usually takes me an hour after the initial drawing to digitize a composition but I took my time on this one (too many other things on the plate). It is a tribute to Hajime Ueda who works on the art for FLCL by GAINAX and published by TokyoPop. If you have a chance to read this it is a funny graphic novel. What I like about the art is the rugged look and feel. The image below is of the character Naota, ofcourse I’ve taken some freedom to kinda do my own thing however the style is somewhat the same. I’ve always admired the works by Microbians. Curves don’t matter as much. But in my composition I didn’t want to let go of curves completely. I think its a good balance. So tribtues to Hajime and Gabriel of Microbians.
