Starting a new project..

Sun Sep 13, 2009, 6:44 AM
Okay, so after loosing my job and being unable to secure a new teaching position before the new school year began, I've decided to focus on some personal projects. The first is a big one, and ambitious too.

The seven deadly sins and the seven virtues are a popular theme for any artist. They evoke strong emotions and images no matter where you look. So I've decided to take them and begin an illustration project. Each will be a character done in a steampunk style, complete with background and individual frame.

The list in no particular order:
1. Lust
2. Gluttony
3. Greed
4. Sloth
5. Wrath
6. Envy
7. Pride
8. Chastity
9. Temperance
10. Charity
11. Diligence
12. Patience
13. Kindness
14. Humility

I'm likely going to start with the sins, and work into the virtues later.

Progress : Gathering references.
