Baba Yaga's Cabin

Illustration I worked on for my Background Design class last quarter. I've been trying to practice more backgrounds, so this was a fun challenge!

AKA House on chicken feet.

Thumbnails - Wasn't sure which story I wanted to go with at first. Top row: Little Red Riding Hood. Middle row: Alice in Wonderland (focused more on the Cheshire cat). Bottom row: Stories of Baba Yaga.

Initial sketch.

Basic flats.

Started working on the cabin in grayscale - for stronger values & contrast.

Grayscale - for contrast.
