412K Toy Store Background

412K Toy Store Background

Last week I began working on the Toy Store Background for the Russian animations. For this animation, a child pulls his mother to a store window to look at a toy he wants. The mother considers it but then sees how expensive it is and pulls him away from the window. For this particular background, I used an actual toy store in Moscow as a loose reference. I wanted it to be  very classic toy that the boy would be interested in, one that someone from both Russian and American culture can identify with, so I opted for a classic robot toy. Once the robot is colored, I’ll add a large price tag sticking off of it!
