Pixar - Up, Bertross


Hey guys the old man from the movie UP really struck me when i watched this with my wife. I found his face very interesting and thus we have a nice closeup of it :D. Took me about 2 hours in total. I tried to go for a comic style half water colour hybrid. I could have spent a lot more time on it but i would have taken it to far and it would have become a realistic still which i didnt want to take it. I kept the line work very rough like i would from a quick sketch and didnt muck around with it to much as it suited the old face.

  1. Holy Cow! This is really great Bertross. Minimal and clean. Glad you chose not to over render it. I think you've capture the character great!

  5. Bertross this is outstanding, the play on squares, frames and claustrophobia in this composition is top class.
