Virtue's Islands
These are some ideas for an island that was going to be used as a background for a short animation called Virtue, which some classmates and I were working on. The idea was that the island would be floating and surrounded by other smaller islands. It represents Virtue's (the main character) state of mind, it's a place where she can be at peace.
These are some of the things I worked on
Virtue's Island.
This is one of the first sketches I made for the island.
Another sketch that I made for the island.
After some feedback, we decided to make the island a little more surrealistic.
Here's a closeup of the previous sketch in black and white.
We wanted to visualize the island as a whole, so here are a few silhouettes.
An illustration based on one of the silhouettes.
Another illustration based on a silhouette. This one was chosen as a possible final island.
Here's the island colored. The island was thought to be bright with striking colors.
A variation of the island. The colors are more dull when Virtue's state of mind becomes corrupted.
