Some of you may have already seen this in the Journey Beins Challenge, but for those of you that didn't get the cance, here it is.
This is a scene from a Spooky children's story.

I tried to stay true to the story and the location, Bavaria. The trees, vegitation and costumes were all research and designed based on real locations and elements from that region.

For the look I wanted to stay with a classic animation feel, but with my own flavor. It was achallenge to say the least and it went through many changes. Feel free to check out the process in the challenge thread.
