COTTAGE COUNTY

Work on a short story titled Cottage Country by David K. Yeh. The story is about a man on his 400 acres going head-to-head with a twisted and dangerous nature fairy wreaking havoc on the local wildlife. I opted for two character designs with supplemental materials and two environment designs depicting scenes from the text.
