Changin it up today with a visdev 🧡 thread with keyframes I helped paint for #TransformersEarthspark

First up is the contact sheet with some of the first pieces of artwork done for the show, close ups below:

These were the first paintings I did of the Malto Compound at different times of day.

We were aiming for Amblin/Spielberg aesthetic, especially during nighttime.

Fun Fact: I based the color of the house from my childhood home πŸ‘Ά

The kitchen was another important spot to highlight, especially with the Filipino Dad cooking up some delicious homecooked meals: Pancit (Noodles) and Lumpia (Eggrolls).

Then we've got some shots of the little town of Witwicky.

And these were the first story moments explored:

1. Alex meets OP
2. Shenanigans with Twitch, Thrash, Robby, & Mo
3. Battle at the bridge

These were done roughly around when I was wrapping on #RiseoftheTMNTMovie.

It was fun to explore a new playground, from turtles to bots!
