Not what I had in mind ...

Description

Or better known as:
Ratigan's Tailor Shop
A THING THAT SHOULD NEVER BE

For :icondisneydreamers:'s contest
"The Disney Out of Character Contest"


Two works in one day? What is this?! Have I gone mad? (I'm guessing yes ...) And I have a background again! 100% digital! Not even a sketch first! MIRACLE!!!

Ok, moment of randomness aside, I will dare say that I honestly cannot remember the last time I had so much fun working on a single peace! I'm certain that there must be some perspective mistakes in there (the boards on the wall are bothering me a bit ...) but right now, I don't really care! I'm f***** proud of this! :heart:

Now, back to our sheep :sheepish:

How exactly does this work fit the theme of the contest?

... We have Ratigan, the one who had that big fancy purple king-overcoat and who matched pink with indigo ... mainly someone who has no idea about matching colors, for God's sake! And we have him work as a TAILOR? And what is this I see? Mrs. Judson working for him?! HAS THE WORLD GONE MAD! And to top thinks Basil's the ... model?! ... and we have a sunny GMD work? :faint:

Must I really say more?


They have some pretty odd faces in there ... almost like their caught in the middle of a conversation. What are they saying? (it ain't gonna be pretty guys ...)

Basil: This was not what I had in mind when I suggested a change of plot ...
Mrs. Judon: Mr. Basil, for heaven's sake, stop moving!
Basil: I've been unmoving for the past half an hour, woman! And what's more, I'M WEARING THIS ABNORMALLY!!!
Ratigan: How's it going my dears? Oh, goodness gracious! This is superb work Mrs. Judson! The colors, the material! Dearest me, it matches our model's eyes perfectly!
Basil: I am not a model!
Mrs. Judson: Mr. Basil, stop fussing already!
Ratigan: Oh, this shall be my masterpiece! What do you think, Basil?
Basil: ... I think you shouldn't give up on your profession as this world's "greatest criminal mind" quite yet, Ratigan ...


What is Olivia doing there?

What she's always doing, being adorable! :heart:
(and laughing at ultimate randomness XD)

And that be that. I shall now retire and hope you won't kill me until my exams XD

See ya' all! :peace:

This picture is for an OOC (out of character) contest at #DisneyDreamers so yeah, I'd say she nailed that perfectly here!

Vision: Of a tailor shop in London and there is a lot of detail going on in this small room. It's an average scene of how a tailor shop should look with the spool of thread, a mannequin wearing a dress in the window, pieces of material strewn on the floor, and a whole roll of material on the far right are good indications of where this all takes place. 5.0

Originality: Um, Professor Ratigan as a tailor, Mrs. Judson helping him and Basil as the hapless 'dummy' with Olivia looking on. I would say that's VERY original! 5.0

Technique: Still using her style of vivid yet soft colors, sharp tools, shadows, lighting, darkness and other life-like effects yet remains on an animated, cartoonish level. 5.0

Impact: Well, after I got up off the floor from rolling around on it in hysterics, I'd have to say the impact here is meant for amusement, to poke fun. I'm getting vibes of enjoyment and the intention for the viewer to smile at it...or in my case, get side pains. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/x/x…" width="15" height="15" alt=":XD:" title="XD"/> 5.0
