I’m trying to make a fun little Zack and Miri playing card by combining the King of Hearts and Queen of Hearts into one, but having them be Zack and Miri (played by Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks). This is a bit of a rush, as in I’m not really giving myself much time to plan it out, clean it up and finish it before Friday, despite the illustration itself being rather simple.
The image shows my current progress with me inking the pencils in one of my little sketchbooks. The drawing style is a hybrid of my cartoony style and what you see in a playing card. The eyes are a combination of mine style’s and the card’s, the hair is basically the playing card’s artwork style, as well as the mouths/nose and eyebrows. The hands are mine because I didn’t like how the hands looked on the cards.
Rather than a dagger, Zack is holding a camcorder. And rather than a flower, Miri is holding a… toy. Also the queen of heart’s 2nd hand does not appear in the card’s artwork, so I was thinking of having her hand grab the crotch area of Zack’s half, thus intertwining the two even more.
For finished work of mine, you can go to my website.
