Further Experiments In Animation Background Art

Another experiment inspired by anime background art. This one was a head scratch of layers and masks (something I have never used to any great degree) so various effects and animations could (theoretically) be added later. The car is a placeholder for future tests. Now all I need to do is drum up the cash, and the courage, to invest in a copy of Adobe After Effects. -_-

I might create a mini secondary blog if I pursue this kind of work further, as I'm not exactly comfortable posting these among my usual landscape scratchings.

Experiments

Here's a couple of test paintings I did for a personal project I've been mulling over in my head for a good few years now. The first painting ended up looking too much like there are 3D elements involved, but the second is closer to what I have in mind. Certainly inspired by anime background art.
