BOOK DEVELOPMENT
For the main characters, I explored their design and emotional range. The brother imagines his plush alligator as a real alligator and dragon.
Every whacked-out dream needs a pirate ship bed.
THUMBNAIL SKETCHES
Before diving into sketches, I create these rough sketches. While things change naturally along the way, this lays out the plan for the book.
SKETCHES
Both value and text are added to the sketches to make sure everything is working well together.
