Susie The Blue Coupe - On The Open Road

Artist Description: So a few years ago, I stumbled upon something I didn't think I ever find; The original storyboards for Susie The Blue Coupe. Turns out there was a whole segment that was cut showcasing Susie at her prime enjoying camping out in the woods. There's a certain charm about going camping with cars around that time period, some of which I experienced with the few VW camping trips Ive been involved in; As such, the fact that this segment was cut was a bit sad to me. It was only recently that I decided I wanted to draw and color one of these scenes from said storyboard. If I could somehow animate the whole thing, I would.

If you're curious about these storyboards, they can be found here: www.michaelspornanimation.com/…

As for the drawing itself, I still think my backgrounds aren't too sharp, but I got my own style when it comes to Susie anyway, and in that regard, I feel like I got her down fairly well.

I think this encourages me more to try to dive into digital coloring a lot more now than before, though.
