Another Background Concept

We've been working on creating a background style for an animaiton we are going to begin but havn't been having much luck. Most the artists have been taking a crack at it so far, but we havnt found a style that fits. The problem has been that we've been adding too much detail and trying to come up with something interesting and unique. Normally that would be awesome, but we have some stylized characters, and we dont want to distract the viewer with some busy backgrounds.



This background uses the same line quality and keeps the detail fairly low. We experimented with different colors but, the Boss wants a "Simpsons" look, so we are going with the bright pastel colors.



Later Ill post some of the finished background concepts.

This is another video of me illustrating it! Snapz Pro is a sweet program :) I'm sure Ill continue to bore you with vids like this! Maybe one day I'll add the video thats not sped up. Exciting! A full three and a half hours of slow paced illustrating fun!
