Silhouettes

Hey folks! We began this project by pen and inking 40 immediately recognizable silhouettes. After choosing 15 favorites, we took those, traced them in pencil and re-drew different objects over them conforming to the original shapes. These were the original 40 silhouettes.

Here's a composite of all 40 silhouettes

added a background to the werewolf silhouette. awwwwoooo!

Later we selected three silhouette images to draw interior objects inside of them to add some sort of commentary (example: a frog inside of a fly shape). These are the three finished pencil sketches followed by the pen and inked versions.

here's the finished illustrations

I got pretty good grades for the assignment but was given the opportunity to rework the scubadude and nungun trying to push the texture a little more and also using colors other than black and white for shadows and highlights. Here's the two reworks.
