Artist's commentary
HATSUNE MIKU+COROLLA -PRINT AD
Here's the unedited 1 of 2 pieces done For Hatsune Miku + Toyota Corolla!
The client had a very specific vision for the piece which is cool because it was really fun to create (and hopefully excel) under specific parameters. She had to be drawn to look a bit older as opposed to Japan in order to cater towards an international market. I tried to find an even middle ground where she would look anime but still digestible to the everyday viewer.
They did give me some creative freedom in how the pose , wings and hair was drawn but in the end the format had to still fit the intended layout. I did explore some new tricks on the hair though.
Had a bunch of fun learning about and creating Hatsune Miku, hope you all like it!!!
[ Press Release from Toyota: Pick up the May issue of Koream, Hyphen or many other magazines for a special collectors edition print of Hatsune Miku. This month, artist Alvin Lee teamed up with Miku and Corolla. ]
