LILO AND STITCH continued

As has been stated here before, the background art from LILO AND STITCH is among some of Disney's finest. Compasrison's even to SNOW WHITE are fair... just look at these digitally re-created background paintings.

Look at the woodgrain texture, even wear marks on these stairs, as well as the perspective and use of shadow and light.

Love the tropical flowers and leaves on the left:

Such an interesting design, so real and cartooney at the same time:

This composition of the kitchen and stovetop is incredibly rich in detail. Smoke effects and simmering pot are "digital cel" overlays.

Note the subltlety of the landscape views in the "background within a background."

  2. Fantastic backgrounds! I especially like the effort that went into the top background. Someone spent time to look at a real, aged back porch

  7. Perhaps my favorite film to work on. Have to admit however, that at first the idea of painting in watercolor was very intimidating. After our workshops with Thomas Schaller, an architectural illustrator from New York, we started to see the light. This technique is a very controlled series of washes and not the wet into wet, "happy accident" kind of watercolor that you see in many galleries.
