This was a really cool opportunity. At this time I would draw generally 1 or 2 things a year and that was it. I don't even know how this guy got a commission out of me....but for some reason he asked and I accepted.
I was too scared to draw back then and my head was all screwed up with procrastination, not really know what I wanted to do exactly, but I was trying to get the nerve up. I'd make these little leaps and this was one of them.
anyway he wanted ANY cartoon character but drawn in the artists own unique version. You could basically do anything you wanted./
I knew immediately I wanted to do Maleficent. I just think that character is so cool looking. Honestly there wasn't a whole lot I would change about the design....so the tweaks are pretty minor.

That was a riff off this old movie I saw as a kid.
Time Bandits.
It really was weird. I think Terry Gilliam directed it...but this evil guy had these creepy rubber gloves and this cool looking cauldron.
I don't think it really looked like this...but that was the basic idea and where I got it from....plus the cool tech Travis was doing on X-Men Wild Cats which was a HUGE influence on me at the time,
I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
I'm a lover of visual impacts. I like brilliant colors and shapes. And I decided to collect a whole stack of deviations that reflect that taste. These pieces showcased below deserve every bit of publicity you can give them. x)P
