Ned, Ted, and Red: The Big Surprise.

Illustrations from the last book, which was finished in the fall...and, I think, ended up as my favorite. Partners in crime: John Ludwick and Scott Ball. A team of former Disney guys are animating them now, and I'm excited to see the end result.

The following were all painted in Painter. Here's a handful of the final illustrations (All images copyright © MeySen 2009):

Cheezy Aroma.

More progress on the Mice in the Barn project. This is the first spread of the book...pages 1 and 2. The spot on the left will have text underneath...something like "In the box. Out of the box. Through the hole."

I'm resisting my urge to add some sophomoric humor here. You do the same...for the sake of the children.

I Hate Meeces to Pieces.

Progress on the illustration job with JB Ludwick. You can see this original ink on the Zealot's blog.

Still working out the kinks in Painter, especially with this type of painting technique...but, I'll tell you - at times, it's easy to forget that you are in a software package and not at an easel. Now if the good folks at Corel could incorporate an element of danger like a lead paint option, or a combustible turpentine dropdown menu - all the cool kids would buy it.
