Monster Soup

This is what I did aaaaaaaaall Spring break! It was so nice to just sit and work at it for days and days and days without interruption. I ate 3 boxes of cereal at some point during this spell. I'm a little confused that it's almost Tuesday?

This is the second-to-last piece in my Senior Thesis, which is going to be about 8 illustrations from what would hopefully one day be an original children's book called "Monster Soup". This one turned out to be more critical than I expected, a lot of problems I was having with the technique I'm using started working themselves out early into the process. Local color in tiny areas is getting easier! And this is good, because the last one is going to be real, real, real BUSY.

Im so excited. *___*
