The Highland Haggis
Taking my idea of doing haggis designs based on different Scottish wildlife/areas. The highland haggis is based on the highland cow so it features the cows trademark horns and ginger hair. Its appearance is based on various common descriptions such as the teeth and having one leg shorter than the other so it runs in circles.
Silhouettes and initial sketch ideas thinking of different regions/wildlife in Scotland and how I could incorporate the climate/living environment into the haggis design.
Images taken from my sketchbook and painted over in Photoshop.
Colouring and painting one of the poses of the haggis. The circles to the side were me experimenting with two brushes to get a texture I liked for his fur.
Turn around sheet of the haggis with more detailed close ups of his key features.
