He searched daily until finally he saw what he believed to be a sleeping tiger in the distance - - he was convinced this was the tiger he had been searching for. He drew his bow and arrow, took careful aim and released the arrow...it pierces the tiger's body very deeply -- but not all is what it seems... ...Join LING on a tragic journey of LOVE, LOSS and REVENGE.

CONCEPT ART FOR SETTING - stage 1





I produced these sketches a while ago; i like the images however
i feel it best to experiment with ink and brush in the future.



These are lovely examples of the delicate style i wish to achieve in my animation.

These Background concepts are amazing, must of taken you ages. The story reminds me of one I have heard involing swans, but it's obviously a classic, there are probably loads of versions. Really impressed by all your work, already looking forward to seeing the final film
