NIMH

« prev 23 in pool next »

A self made reference image of Mrs. Elizabeth Brisby to help keep me consistent with her design and appearance.

I have to admit that while trying to craft my own flavor of Brisby, I have diverged on some of her design aspects that with reflection, looks awful, so I made this for myself to keep me consistent with my latest attempt at making a Steam Punk Air Pirate version of her as seen in center image.

Now while I made this for myself, I kinda thought others could find this useful, so here's my ref for anyone interested. =D

*****

The Secret of NIMH is owned respectively to Robert C. O'brien and Don Bluth
Art by moi for moi, and anyone else interested.
Made with PhotoShop and SAI

Very very nice! I think it's important to keep a bit if your own style in the character. I drew her the other day just to see if I still could. I was quite happy with what came out. But honestly, I've never been able to get her exactly on model with Bluth.

Awe thank you! I can't count the number of attempts nor hours I spent trying to at least grasp Don's styling, but it wasn't until I saw his posted vid on youtube about how he envisions Brisby being drawn that it clicked in my head. XD

Some of these scribbles you can see that I tried to combine too much of my own styling into her, and it sort of didn't pan out. XDD But I finally did manage to reach a blend that I liked (center of image) and I'm aiming to use that sort of blend with Brisby from now on when it comes to my own fan-verse of NIMH. =D

Wow, thanks for that link! I'm not sure I'd ever seen Bluth draw Mrs. Brisby before. I thought that was really neat that he uses all upward strokes for facial features. Makes sense as to how he's able to make her features the way they are. I kind of construct her face in a similar fashion, but using completely different pencil strokes.

You're welcome Chuck! I stumbled across that youtube by chance some time ago... can't remember when or how I came across it, but I bookmarked it, and I figured since you're another NIMH and Bluth fan, I had to share that with you. =D
