Once Upon A Time In A Faraway Ireland...

Apologies for the late post this evening. I got on a roll with work and figured it foolish to break it considering the productive stagnation I seem to have adopted as of late. And thanks to a bum week, I've barely got further with Sushi work let alone anything new and fun for blog times.

So, bearing in mind that I've been working on backgrounds recently, I figured this post should continue in this vein. Here I've delved back to a project we started about this time last year, that unfortunately never quite made it to see the light of day... Set in Ireland and based on the Protestant/Catholic divide, the animation told the story of a Catholic schoolgirl who wandered into the Protestant area of town on her way home.

It was going to be magical. 

Despite the fact it never quite came together, I'm quite pleased with some of the work I produced during it. So here are 3 of my favourite backgrounds I produced for the film.

Considering this was my first time doing both backgrounds and digi painting, I don't feel I did too badly...
