Pick and Mix

For our pre production class we have to make a short cartoon based on cards that we picked. I ended up with the following cards:

Artist - Georges Barbier
Theme/Show  -  Legal thriller
Character - Angel
Location/setting - Allotments

I find it funny how it all worked out with the combination, it's really easy to come up with things at the same time as it's rather hard. Trying not to fall into the trap of basing it a lot of other shows at the same time as the simplest explanation of how it will work out up to now have been me throwing out "Law and order meets supernatural in a garden patch and they have legal battles like in Phoenix Wright."

I've been toying a bit around with Barbier's style, I did find the eyes in his drawings to be kind of small, so that is a thing I have changed a little, but I tried to keep as much as possible from his original style in my sketch work.


Been thinking of putting the entire story to a 20's England, toyed with the thought of Denmark for a little while since they have had allotments from an early age there as well, but didn't seem to find too much information on the 20's from there.
Or maybe I should just make up my own world entirely...
Either way it's 20's style all the way.
