IF: SUBSTRACT

Quick update: Goats can look like rams if their horns turn inward like the one below. I changed the horns so there is no confusion.



This may be a bit of a stretch for IF, but I was working on this character study this morning and when I scanned it, the lines were too light and the background was too dark. Pretty much gray on gray! I had to substract the background in Photoshop to make the sketch visible.

This goat is one of four characters from a story I plan to illustrate.

I will post the other characters as I come up with them. I originally intended to illustrate my own story but after my SCBWI local meeting I realized that it will take quite a bit of work to get it to be a decent story, that's if I ever really get it to the point where I would feel comfortable reading it out loud to other people. In the mean time I will illustrate an existing children's story.
Can you guess what story I plan to illustrate from this character study?

Thanks to Deborah Mori for all her great help! I'm so glad I met her here on blogland!
