This is my version of Slothicorn in her little cubicle, with the ball, bed and dream machine.
Here is the full image version and the bit of the story I am illustrating.
Every day at her job, she sits in a cubicle and is hooked up to a helmet which extracts her dream energy. She also has an exercise bike, a spinning ball and a small bed in her cubicle. She is free to do any activity, as long as she is alone and producing dreams for the collection boxes. She is not allowed to use her smartphone or talk to anyone though.
I thought this would be a fun contest to enter, because I love animals and really like doing little sketches and then inking and watercolouring them digitally.
I'm still not sure if Slothicorn is herself meant to be part unicorn, so luckily any horn would be covered by my version of her 'dream extracting helmet. I figured in her dreams there would oft appear an actual unicorn thus I chose to represent that little fella in her pinky cloud dreams.
I know the ball is probably meant to be an exercise ball, but for the colour story I really wanted a colourful beach ball. I figured it would supply her with the colourful segway into her obviously much valued dreams (I mean they are taking them from her as her job, so they must be valuable, right?)
This was a totally fun contest and a great break in my day of working on my larger more involved digital oil pieces.
This is the creative commons thing I believe I am meant to put here to share this piece. (still really learning about that.)
This contest is thanks to @slothicorn and the contest, which runs until 14 February, Can be accessed here so why not join in the fun!
