[Title]
my characters in the real world...
in Monaco specifically. I went there briefly about 3 years ago now- I snapped a bunch of pictures on my phone, but I'm a terrible photographer. This was one of the few that stood out to me as being okay. I did a lot of editing, and had to adjust it to fit the characters a lot but I think it turned out really nice. Drawing aspect of this is okay. I think my lines were a bit thin here- but it works given the situation.

Kind of got the idea from the "CN City" bumpers. Like here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbbYs-Ki1x8 (this is 50min long, do not watch the whole thing unless you are truly bored)
I've always been amazed (if that is the right word?) at the idea of cartoony characters in realistic environments... it's how a lot of my dreams are if you believe it. I don't question it, it's hard to describe too, but when you dream, I know that the part of your brain that "reasons", is not really awake, so it seems normal.
Also, when I was young, I wasn't that great at drawing admitively, but I knew my way around editing software. I'd cut transparent images/drawings into real pictures I had taken or saved and would shade it in and that stuff. It was really kind of bad... but it's a fun idea. This was fun to make again. I'd do it more, but as I said before I don't have any other good pictures. I like the environment here. Not much way for cool stuff where I live but maybe I'm not looking (maybe this summer or fall I will try again)
