Back Ground Painting

This is a gouache painting I had to do for my "Painting for Layout" class. It was meant to be a painting made for one of the characters we designed in our "Character Design" class. I`m posting the original painting, the painting with the character added digitally and the character sheet. The Character macabro was designed after the Guará wolfs that have their habitat in southern/central Brazil.

On a separate note; I have been trying to post some videos on youtube so I can link them here on my website (like i did with the pink panther walk and the beast head rotation), but I`m having some codec difficulties. Hopefully I`ll be able to sort this out soon so you guys can see my last couple of animations for the first year of "Animation Principal" class.

For now, I hope you guys enjoy!
