Parachute Party

Check it out, this is the latest illo I did for The Canadian Sportsman. I really like how this one turned out.

Sketches
In the first sketch, the article wasn't too clear that it was harness racing (plus it was dated back in the 1970's) so I just assumed that the rider was riding horseback. But I was wrong.

So I fixed it up. The editor wanted to show the part in the article where the trainers come in and slowed the horse down with a parachute. This sketch is pretty much what the final illo looks like. The editor dug this image.

Inks

There you have it. Enjoy!
