Level Design

A level I designed in class; the basic concept was that the Disney Fairies universe went through a black hole and their magic transformed while in a new dimension - my idea was to have it transform into music -- the magic lies withing the music, hence why the structures resemble musical instruments. I thought it was a cool and different take on the concept, and thus I decided to create an actual character to place within the realm - I will post it soon, I just have to prioritize my projects first. Although this is only the final piece, the entire production process took the initial seven hours as printed in the upper right-hand corner. This was done on 11X17 paper in warm grey copic markers. Please leave a comment and tell me what your thoughts are. Vaya con Dios.

Character Design

A character I created for my character design class; his name is Malik - M. Ali K -- first letter of my last name. I decided to break my comfort zone of more detailed and realistic pieces by doing him in a more stylized/cartoony style all while still maintaining a certain reality to it. Unfortunately I never came up with a backstory for him-leave a comment if you think I should make one or if you have a suggestion. This was done on 9X12 smooth Bristol board in standard graphite pencil. Vaya con Dios.
