Cow - McDonalds, Carlos Nieto (2D)

#1

Title: Cow - McDonalds
Name: Carlos Nieto
Country: United Kingdom
Software: Photoshop

A few months ago we developed two adverts for McDonalds at Picasso Pictures , it was directed by Finkbom, I did the the texture for the cows and the birds, the color study for the set and the mattepainting for the background.
This is the first color study we did to get the pitch, :slight_smile:
Damian Johnston designed the character and I did the color work using (of course) Photoshop.
It was for a pitch… so there is a lack of details on some areas as you can tell…
I hope you like it!

PHOTOSHOP!

I LOVE THIS PIC.

Hey thanks! I’m glad you like it. Yep" the idea is to get as much information is possible for the 3D departments…

#4

awesome mate! How long did it take?

#5

haha that is really cool! could you tell us a bit about ur approach when working on something like this?

cheers!

#6

Thanks ! Cool u like it!
Well it too a day as usually working for a pitch,and then a morning getting done the feedbacks from the client… On this one we finally had to change the “disco” ambient for a normal stable… It was to risky I guess :smiley:
Actually I’ve upload on my blog they way I work… Which is easy, cleaning (masking) the character/bg, first layer with basic color, second layer for the volume, texture (usually from a picture) and then some retouches… I will suggest to add some Diet Coke,maybe some Doritos… And ready to eat! ( I mean… send!)
