An old, incomplete painting from "How to Train your Dragon." In an earlier version of the story, the kids are taken to a training ground high up on the island and they spend the night in a rickety old cabin. I started this painting with a rough marker and pencil sketch to establish the design. I added rough color in photoshop using color balance and then painted and dropped a few textures on top.

wow, I love the look of this! It's nice to see the marks that traditional media makes.
There is some really nice texture going on in this! I would not have suspected markers were the medium because of it...I'm guessing you hang on to ones that are low on ink to get this effect? It's amazing what a great feel you can get for designs even in "unfinished" pieces like this.
Wow ¡! Wich marides did you use?. i'm pretty happy with "TOuch" markers. Theyre are more cheaper than copic , and very similar! jeep up the great Job.
Markers...not marides ( iPad corrections)
Fantastic! I've seen the movie last year and I absolutely loved it. Now it's even more epic to know that you worked out some concepts for it, especially after I've browsed the book Scott Robertson published for you guys, The Skillful Huntsman, it had such great work and I learned a huge deal from it.
Way to go! :)
Very nice.
I agree with the others - the combination of traditional and digital is very well done - it's a lovely piece! :)

Yups, some great results from the mix media approach. I feel encouraged to try it out myself now. Good stuff!
Oh man, this is incredible! I love the texture you gave in this! I like being able to see stuff that wasn't in the art-of book :) Fantastic work!
Really cool! There is a great feeling off this
Wow, this is awesome. I especially love the roof!
awesome
Awesome!
Really great!
This is incredible!
This is stunning!!
I love how you have worked into a traditional drawing, with digital media, but kept the qualities of a traditional drawing!!
I hope that makes sense!! It works in my head!!
I mean, its great to see digital media being used as another 'tool' in the artist's tool box alongside pencils and maker pens.
I hope this makes sense?!!
Basically, i think it looks ace!!
Very pretty!! Great job!!
I'd love to see what the picture looked like before it was worked into digitally!!
Good luck with getting everything ready for CTN!
All the best!
Maybe see you at Comic Con?
Best wishes,

I wish there was a How-To-Train-Your-Dragon amusement park. 1) to ride dragons, and 2) to visit cool sets like this!
The traditional media really shines through on this one :) great work!
beautiful piece of work. I've not seen How to... yet but the more I see of the production art the more I want too. Probably bite the bullet the weekend and just buy it.
all that kung fu panda stuff is so great mike!
I love this concept art!!! It's really well done and love the mood you set in this painting. I want to get better at digital painting, myself so using different media seems to be a great idea for that.
awesome, got any more incomplete paintings you'd care to share?
very nice ; )
Wow, this one is really amazing. I personally like the "unfinished" conceptual work better. Nice!
amazing!
Your work is really beautiful and full of character :)
it looks amazing, I am such a huge fan of your work! Thanks for doing what you do.
Looking real good!
