What children’s drawings would look like if it were painted realistically

What children’s drawings would look like if it were painted realistically
The Monster Engine is one of those projects that make me love the Internet for its ability to expose amazing creative talent to a worldwide audience. Illustrator Dave DeVries started with a simple question: What would a child’s drawing look like if it were painted realistically? In his own words: It began at the Jersey Shore in 1998, where my niece Jessica often filled my sketchbook with doodles. While I stared at them, I wondered if color, texture and shading could be applied for a 3D effect. As a painter, I made cartoons look three dimensional every day for the likes of Marvel and DC comics, so why couldn’t I apply those same techniques to a kid’s drawing? The Monster Engine is the 48-page outcome from that curiosity, and it looks wonderful. I project a child’s drawing with an opaque projector, faithfully tracing each line. Below are some of my favorite illustrations from the project. Buy “The Monster Engine” on Amazon.
