Siberian Scout Bot ❄️ for #marchofrobots2020 p Siberian Scout Bot ❄️ for #marchofrobots2020 prompt 9, #cold - Had a few hours yesterday to do some non-work related art and decided on a whim to contribute to this year's #marchofrobots 🤖 First time I've ever participated in a challenge like this and I really enjoyed the constraints of the prompt and drawing on inspiration from the other participating artists. It also gave me an opportunity to play around with this shape-based cutout illustration rendering technique that I'm pretty excited about. Most of my art has tended to rely on a foundation of strong line work. I still love working that way, but I've been pushing myself to experiment with other methods to conceptualize and render illustrations. Pretty happy with how this one turned out. I'll definitely try to jump in on a few more of the prompts before the month is out ✨
