Thank You Animation - 3D Adventure Time Title Card
Part of my Adventure Time series which brings the rubbery 2D world into the 3rd dimension. Check it out here: http://polysthetic.com/adventure-time-title-cards
Thank You is another breakout classic from the show, and it's heartwarming story is alluded to in the title card, with the snow golem's hand melting whilst handling the fire wolf pup.
The blend of realistic and stylised is seen again here with a realistic snow for the ground and realistic charcoal texture for the pup, whilst the remainder of the textures are simple. This was a tough artwork to nail, despite its simplicity, due to the stylised shapes of the clouds and trees, and the extreme perspective distortion of the snow golem which had to warp the proportions of the character to make it work. It's easy to see now see that what looks reasonable on a flat image, does not always make sense spatially.
