A quick snapshot of the original line drawings for the Cheshire Cat by Spencer Hansen. Available exclusively to our Kickstarter backers. Yep, you get the whole set, cat-beard and skeleton included.
Rough pencils
Spencer’s rough line work of the cat, with very rough colors to test the lighting states.

One of Spencer’s initial texture studies. It’s a branch. And that’s part of the first attempt at a cat beard.
