Tomorrow is printing day, yippieee!!

I'll finally see how my picturebook, that i've worked on for 6 months, comes to life! It's about a boy who jumps to the moon. There he finds weird plants, glowing, funky tasting bananas and... the moon crocodile.

I spent the past 5 hours configurating my printing file again and again and again and again, and i hope everything is correct now, haha. I had a friend help me with the files and explain some printing techniques to me. I would be lost without him xD

Lets hope everything goes right tomorrow!!

a picture book idea i got over the summer that i expanded on for my illustration class! we had to make two spreads, and i started with pages 6-7 and 8-9 just because they were more fun than the first five pages..also an experiment in making cohesive color palettes traditionally. i'm not sure if i just made it too brown or the scanner wrecked it but oh well. i might finish painting the rest of the pages someday and i might not
