Illustration Friday-Neighbor
Click images for a larger view.
This is my entry for Illustration Friday's "neighbor" topic. Still trying to do sets. Good practice. These are a bit of a departure for me, style wise, especially the one with the bridge. Both started as pencil sketches. Then drew my vector lines trying to keep the casual nature of a pencil sketch. Painted some textures, and compiled everything in Photoshop. Both were created today, Sunday, specifically for IF.
What do you think?

nice bckground texture and style
I agree with the Doc, great background texture. I also like the limited depth in the second one-the way the bridge comes away from the little houses.
I like this very much!
well of course i love em cuz there houses and beautiful colours and textures. The bridge is cool, i love bridges too and the birds are very lovely!
Great illustrations, Scott! Love the bridge idea!
I like them both , very much! The bridge idea is wonderful and surreal...tnx for stopping by
hi scott! i like how you combined vector and real-paint textures, it receives a very natural feel =)
thanks for visiting my blog too!

What a good idea and well executed!
Thanks for your nice comment on my blog.
This is so cool, you come up with the most original ideas , I love the colors in these pictures.
some of this talk (like vectors) I dont understand! but the illo is brilliant I love the bridge between the houses it speaks volumes, Judy x
I would like to see a bird walking that bridge. I like the colors on these. The texture in the background looks like a dense forest.
I like it very much!!
I like those a lot Scott. I want to learn to do digital drawings, have you ever posted a how-to?
great use of texture and composition! I really like it!
i can't decide..i think i like both. the texture is interesting..
Nice textures and colors, Scott. I like them :)
I really like the 2nd one. The bridge is cool. I like the idea of it and I like drawings that have a sense of impracticality (?) about them. Nice style, too.
I like them both. They belong together. I like how they mirror each other. Great textures, especially on the background. When I came to your page I thought I was in the wrong place! Great stuff but quite different that your ussual fare. I like it, Scott.
i like them both. i like the background and texture. the lines are also great.
Cute drawing! Love the birds
As usual, you've made pieces with excellent texture and color. I like them both!
I like the birds picture better, though both are nice. But the birds' houses lean toward one another (from their anchor points) while the mountaintop houses lean away from one another (from their anchor points). Also I like the element of visible inhabitants, also looking toward one another. Both those factors work to make the birds' picture warmer and more neighborly.
very good idea!
nice matching set - looks like it might be a bit hairy to get from one house to the other
since you asked I put a link up to my deleted image in the comments.
Muito bom!
seu tarabalho faz a gente riri na primeira olhada, mas pode ser interpretado de várias formas!
Excelente!
Wow, great work! I always love your combinations of line work and textures.
Really great :) I like the textures and the bold lines together, very effective.
Hey, Scott! Very nice background textures... Looking down your blog, I see you've been working on set pieces and incorporating lots of cool textures. This colors in this one work especially well in contrast to the blue back. Thanks for the nice comment on my post. I followed up with a small explanation for the extended time off.
ii love the second one. love the texture,
Scott - These are both great! I like your "new style"! My fav is the 1st one with the 2 bird houses.
I really like the textures and the colours your chose for the houses. And also the perspective of the bridge!
awesome work scott...i'm lovin' this style of yours! Great!
Both are great but I just love the idea of second one!
I love very muh both illos,very nice..
I think they're both excellent! From design to idea!
Lovely pictures in their own right (especially the first one), but I'd say you have the perfect storyboard for an animated short film right there!
Lovely Scott, I especially
like the bridge drawing!
Very unique style - lovely!
Great illustration - I was going to do birdboxes but went with something else. Like the way you kept that casual style from your pencil sketch.
I like these Scott! I of course like the one with the cute birds a bit more because they bring "life" to the drawing, and also represent neighbors. I love the position of them too. On the other illo, the bridge is a fantastic idea and I like the perspective of it. Working in sets is a cool idea! I may have to try that soon :)
I love house... good steel...
Saludos desde Buenos Aires...
The birds and their houses are very cute. You always do great jobs on your weekly posts.
Love the style, excellent work. Now if we could just get our real neighbors to build bridges instead of fences.
I like them both, Scott...especially the one with the birds. Great colors.
Like last week's, too. Missed it somehow.
I'm tempted to just look at these for a long time. The scene with the birdhouses and the two little birds, set against that amazing green background, and the fascinating bridge connecting the two birdhouses and without they might never meet, no way out of their situation, good neighbors, gonna kinda have to be. Great stuff, and I am very curious what inspired the bottom painting.
I think both are quite beautiful, Scott, I love the backgrounds. But I especially like the message you convey in the last one!
I like the textures you have used. Great idea to push yourself to make sets. Wish I could, but I struggle enough to make the deadline every week! Great work.
I like em... ! these work really well together..
Hi Scott, I'm really enjoying your style. And I applaud you for doing sets!
Love the top one...they're both great. The top one is so timely because birds are looking for real estatein my back yard lately, and this reminds me of that.
cute!i love it!!
very cool idea and execution!@
These are wonderful with great colors! I especially like the top one. It has playful feel and they look like they are connecting in their own ways.
Gracias de nuevo por tus comentarios. Yo espero que tu dispares solo contra dianas. De todas formas, hay muchos tipos de violencia que debemos de evitar. No solo la de las armas.
Thank you again for your commentaries. I wait that your you shoot only against reveilles. Of all forms, there are many types of violence that we must avoid. Not only that of the weapon.
